Praise for Beebe & Masterson's "Communicating in Small Groups"
" While covering communication in small groups, the text does a nice job of balancing group processes and group theory. By incorporating emphases on diversity, ethics, logic, and critical thinking also, this text broadly serves its users. "
--Dr. Rock Doddridge, Asheville-Buncombe Technical Community College
" The combination of a straightforward writing style, attention to theory, and concern for practice make this a very accessible and useful book for undergraduate students. "
--Daniel Modaff, Ohio University
" The hands on exercises are important for helping students apply the theory to reality. "
--Valerie Manno Giroux, University of Miami
" The book is well written, filled with valuable conclusions from research, and addressed central concerns in an interesting way. "
--Robert D. Harrison, Gallaudet University
" The book covers concepts and theories well without overwhelming students with concepts they won't need in a first-level course. "
--Mary-Jo Popovici, Monroe Community College
" The ethical questions raised throughout the book really add a lot. The critical thinking material is the best I have seen in any group text. "
--Marshall Scott Poole, Texas A&M University
" There is an appropriate balance between recognizing that decision making and problem solving are distinct processes, while also realizing that they have essential elements in common. "
--Thomas G. Endres University of St. Thomas
" I'm especially pleased to see an entire chapter devoted to diversity ratherthan writing a paragraph at the end of the book that no one would read. "
--Karen M. Coffey, Monroe Community College
