Family Communication: Cohesion and Changeexamines the communication processes within families and how they affect and are affected by larger social systems. By viewing the family as a communication system with identifiable patterns, the authors encourage the reader to observe family interaction patterns analytically and relate communication theories to family interaction. Using a framework of family functions, first-person narratives, and current research, Family Communication: Cohesion and Change emphasizes the diversity of today's families in terms of structure, ethnic patterns, and developmental experiences.

"The first text to examine the functional family from a communication perspective, Family Communication: Cohesion and Change looks at the range of communication patterns exhibited by families. Family Communication emphasizes the enormous diversity of families today in terms of both structure and cultural heritage. It is also the only text to provide students with a consistent framework for analyzing the patterns of interaction within families. First-person stories from real people throughout the text help students to relate concepts and research to everyday life and to see how course material can be applied to their own lives."--BOOK JACKET.

Because we are writing a communication book we have tried to create a book that allows us to communicate with you and encourages you to communicate with yourself about yourself. Person to Person is not a traditional textbook you can read quickly and finish. You must act as you progress through this book-answer the questions, solve the problems, think of personal examples, and discuss the issues. Our students helped us write this book.
