The Power to Communicate: Gender Differences as Barriers

by Deborah Borisoff, Lisa Merrill

Since the publication of the first edition, The Power to Communicate has provided an important, essential perspective on male/ female communication in both personal and professional settings. Refined in detail, it continues to help readers gain insights into the communicative behavior that is part of the female/male experience in contemporary culture by examining differences in communication styles and behavior. Both sexes will benefit from the authors' provocative, skill-based strategies and techniques designed for breaking free from persistent traditional attitudes.
