What did you like most about this book /article?

In my opinion this book is good for university students especially for students who are majoring language or communication. This book consists of four parts. Part one tells us about the element of communication, this part consists of five chapters about, human communication, perception and the self, language, listening and nonverbal communication. Part two is about interpersonal communication, it has two chapters about, understanding interpersonal relationship and interviewing. Part three tells about communication in group. This chapter consists of three chapters, they are the nature of group, solving problem in group and communicating in organization. The last part is about public communication. It explains about how to choose and develop a topic, how to organize and support a speech and present the massage. This book enriches our knowledge about communication in general. It begins with an introduction to the basic elements of communication. It also provides a solid understanding of perception, language, listening, and non verbal communication. This book guides the students through lively sections on interpersonal communication, small group communication, and public address. The book also gives some pictures to make the readers clearly to understand and also offers some illustrating concept in real life scenario. In short, this book provides students with the material they need to know to become competent communicators.

What did you like least about this book/article?

For the beginner, this book is too hard to understand. Sometimes the authors use a high level of language. For the picture it is good enough but it will be better if it uses the color picture. It would be better if the author give a current example and related to the social life. I have read the second edition of this book, maybe in the next edition the author give more details explanation or give more reference.

What did you like most about this book /article? 

I think this article was so interesting to read. this article explains about granting assistance to victim war in Darfur differently. One Way is very simple; listening to music. In this article also discusses about one of the songs from Green Day, Working Class Hero.

This article describes the content of the song is sung by Green Day. in the lyrics Working Class Hero, Green Day chanted about social criticism happened in society whereby very suited for tuned for enjoyer music. 

from this type of music, music lovers are expected to be aware of how important it is to help each other in goodness and do not let things like song above happened in our society.

What did you like least about this book/article? 

I do not like about this article because it describes only one of the songs from the songs will be played to music lovers so I can not know what songs will be played in order to bring awareness to the public.
