The Cambridge Introduction to Intercultural Communication Reviews

' technical communicators interested in the theory of intercultural communication would find this text an invaluable addition to their collection. I learned several new facts and even a new theory that I plan to integrate into my teaching and research. The detailed reference sections alone make this book worth the purchase price for an academic researcher.' Nicole St. Germaine, Technical Communication
