Review
“In Mixed Company addresses group communication from a less formal communication perspective. It has appeal and relevance to majors outside of the field of Communication.” ―Samantha L. Gonzalez, Manchester Community College
“A grounded, practical approach to small group communication. Has stood the test of time.” ―Kyle Hanners, Arizona State University
“In Mixed Company, is a good, relatively inexpensive book that I believe students are able to readily engage with throughout the semester. Rothwell presents concepts and examples in a clear, easy-to-understand narrative, and that is good for keeping students’ attention throughout the semester and the assigned readings.” ―Evan Billingsley, Arizona State University
“In Mixed Company is extremely well written and developed. It includes all of the information/scholarship you would like in a class on small group/team communication.” ―Marla Lowenthal, University of San Francisco
