Life-span communication

Life-Span Communication: Normative Processes is a unique collection of articles within the field of human communication. Twenty internationally recognized scholars have written original articles which stress communication as a developmental phenomenon. Each article is placed within a specific development phase. Each article is placed within the context of a normal life span. Each chapter does have meaning unto itself, yet, the purpose of this book is to emphasize that meaning inherent within any communicative act is bound by the point in one's life in which that act occurs.
