Recenzii
Listening: Processes, Functions and Competency, is an impressive text that provides students of listening communication with up-to-date, research-based insights into this highly complex process. As leading listening researchers, Worthington and Fitch-Hauser offer a solid conceptual grounding for understanding the process of listening and how to function more effectively as a listener.
-Andrew Wolvin, University of Maryland, USA
The book presents comprehensive and cutting edge research on listening. The way in which the text relates theory and research findings to real life scenarios is intriguing and makes it definitely relevant both for academic learning and for building strong listening skills.
-Margarete Imhof, Mainz University, Germany
Hands down the best listening text on the market today. It includes the most recent research in an easy-to-read fashion. The research comes alive and is made practical with the case study vignettes integrated throughout each chapter. There is an excellent addition of the chapter focusing on Listening in a Mediated World. Truly an extraordinary text.
-Laura Janusik, Ph.D., Rockhurst University, USA
I strongly recommend Listening because it takes seriously the role of research in building a knowledge base about listening. It also provides sufficient resources for the creative instructor to encourage students to think critically about listening and to apply what they have learned in order to become more proficient.

Descriere
Listening: Processes, Functions, and Competency, Second Edition explores the role of listening as an essential element in human communication. The book addresses listening as a cognitive process, as a social function, and as a critical professional competency. Blending theory with practical application, Listening builds knowledge, insight, and skill to help the reader achieve the desired outcome of effective listening. This second edition introduces listening as a goal-directed activity and has been expanded to include a new chapter addressing listening in mediated contexts. Theory and research throughout the text have been updated, and the final chapter covers new research methodologies and contexts, including fMRI, aural architecture, and music.
