"The editors, both noted scholars, winnowed the multiplicity of topics in the continually expanding purview of communication to fit the overall theme of this three-volume set, which offers more than 270 entries covering the field's major theories, processes, constructs, contexts, and research methods." (Choice Connect, 2016)‘This particular title is a book about what makes us human. There are, as far as I am aware, no other reference sources covering exactly the same subject – certainly nothing remotely on the same scale as this.’ - Martin Guha, Reference Reviews, Vol 31, No 1, 2017.
