A high-energy, colorful and fascinating deep dive into the world of communication.

Covering the many communication methods and forms, past and present - from cuneiform and semaphore to body language and social media - this bright and bold book is chock-full of information. Each mural-like spread focuses on one unique aspect of communication, exploring the topic at an adolescent-friendly pace, with true-or-false tests, lists and sidebars. The book also examines the reasons why humans communicate, how to do it better, and why it's beneficial to our mental health and wellbeing. It's comprehensive and accessible, and the perfect introduction to connecting through communication.

Containing 21 spreads in all, the book describes everything from speaking, language and writing of all types to modern communication modes, such as broadcasting, satellites and the internet. Author Kay Barnham presents facts in short segments that are easy for young people to digest, while exhuberant illustrations by Emans make the information pop. This book has cross-curricular appeal, with connections to culture, mass media, technology, inventions, history and human biology. This is a thought-provoking foundation in communication that's ideal for adolescents who are just starting to experience digital information overload. A glossary, further information and an index add to its resource value.
