With a conversational and student-friendly writing style, each chapter focuses on one essential communication skill that can dramatically enhance students connections with their romantic partners, family members, and friends.

Thank you to Evelyn Mercer, Southwest Baptist University; Willie Johnson, Normandale Community College; and Bonnie Fraser, Champlain College, for their insightful contributions to this second edition.
To my mother and father, for giving me the gift of love. To my four sisters, Diane, Melanie, Nanette, and Teresa, for their love and encouragement throughout the years. And to Paul Sanders for being my brother in this lifetime.
My deepest love to my sons, Jared and Tyler, for being joyous gifts of happiness and wonder. Finally, to my wife, Vicky, my most precious gift of all. It is to Vicky, Tyler, and Jared that I dedicate this book.

Knowledge is useless until it is put into practice.
John F. Kennedy
The knock at the door came as I was getting ready to leave my office for the day. I welcomed the visitor and offered him a chair. He was a former student from my relationship class and he shook my hand enthusiastically and smiled cheerfully. I didnt recall Reggie ever being particularly enthusiastic or cheerful. Most of the semester he appeared reluctant, almost antagonistic, toward me and the activities I required of the students in the relationship course. Frankly, I was surprised by his visit.
I just had to stop by and say thanks for last semester, he began.
Youre welcome. Hows it been going, Reggie? I asked.
Really good. You know all those gifts you had us do in class? Well, I really didnt do them all. I made up some of my homework reports, he admitted.
Oh, really?
Yeah. I coutdnt get into the class much. It just seemed too lame. But I stuck it out because my mom forced me to. But something happened this past semester. I saw my dad when he came to California for a visit. He and my mom have been divorced since I was two, and Ive only seen him a couple of times, Reggie confided.
