Verbal communication is one way for people to communicate face-to-face. Some of the key components of verbal communication are sound, words, speaking, and language. At birth, most people have vocal cords, which produce sounds. Nonverbal communication has received much attention in the areas of business presentation, sales and marketing, and the development of social skills. Little attention, however, has been given to its importance in general communication de-spite major differences in cultural use and interpretation of body language, expression, personal space and other non-verbal tools. The book contains fourteen chapters on various aspects. It is hoped that students in the field of communication and other technical/professional courses will find this book indispensible.
