It is therefore a course of study that as humans, we cannot do without. In this text, the author has x-rayed what the course is all about within the purview of Mass Media and Communication Studies. There are nine chapters in all. The first chapter starts with the definition and overview of Interpersonal Communication. It describes how Interpersonal Communication is a means of shared meaning, as interpersonal relationship and as a means of transaction. It looks at the importance of nonverbal communication in the context of Interpersonal Communication. Chapter two specifies different types of Interpersonal Communication including Dyad, Micro-group, Macro-group and mediated; the principles guiding Interpersonal Communication and its relationship with extra-personal communication. It also situates the communication contexts of ATMs, POS and such like. The third chapter explores the characteristics of Interpersonal Communication, the elements of Interpersonal Communication such as people, messages, channels, effects and feedback. It goes further to present the different Interpersonal Communication contexts including physical, psychological, social, cultural, and temporal.
