Summary: Teaching from an intercultural textbook that utilizes a critical, social justice perspective, and one that is grounded in the reality of globalization is so refreshing. Students relate very well to the contemporary examples Sorrells utilizes...

It is a text that reframes conversations in the field in ways that just make sense!" - Sheena Malhotra, California State University, Northridge Intercultural Communication: Globalization and Social Justice introduces students to the complex relationships, structures, and contexts that shape intercultural communication in the new millennium.
