Nonverbal communication
where nature meets culture
by Ullica Segerstrale and Peter Molnar
The book presents a complex picture of human communicative ability as simultaneously biologically and socioculturally influenced, with some capacities apparently more biologically hard-wired than others: face recognition, imitation, emotional communication, and the capacity for language. It also suggests that the dividing line between nonverbal and linguistic communication is becoming much less clearcut.
The contributing authors are leading researchers in a variety of fields, writing here for a general audience. The book is divided into sections dealing with, respectively, human universals, evolutionary and developmental aspects of nonverbal behavior within a sociocultural context, and finally, the multifaceted relationships between nonverbal communication and culture.
