Communicator Style: Theory, Applications, and Measures

By Robert Norton

Book Overview

Nortons book gives a centrality to style which other books do not, and breaks with traditional treatments in that style and content are not studied separately, but examined as they occur in everyday interaction. Nortons departure from prevailing approaches to the study of style will be highly provocative, inviting testing and further inquiry, for his ideas have utility and practical applications.
