Description
This book is about the social psychology of everyday interactions between people. The topics covered include the way we perceive and interpret other people's behaviour, the use of verbal and nonverbal communication skills and impression management strategies, the development and maintenance of rewarding personal relationships, processes of social influence, and interaction in groups. No previous experience of psychology is assumed, and numerous exercises, activities, figures and illustrations are used to make the material easily comprehensible to readers from a variety of backgrounds. The relevance of the material to everyday problems of social living is emphasised throughout.
