Abstract:

Uniquely interdisciplinary and accessible, The Cambridge Introduction to
Intercultural Communication is the ideal text for undergraduate introductory
courses in Intercultural Communication, International Communication and
Cross-cultural Communication. Suitable for students and practitioners alike,
it encompasses the breadth of intercultural communication as an academic field
and a day-to-day experience in work and private life, including international
business, public services, schools and universities. This textbook touches on
a range of themes in intercultural communication, such as evolutionary and
positive psychology, key concepts from critical intercultural communication,
postcolonial studies and transculturality, intercultural encounters in
contemporary literature and film, and the application of contemporary
intercultural communication research for the development of health services
and military services. The concise, up-to-date overviews of key topics are
accompanied by a wide variety of tasks and eighteen case studies for in-depth
discussions, homework, and assessments.
