Human communication is an involvement of vocalizations and movement. This book explores some aspects of human interaction, which may be known as nonverbal behavior or communication. Authors from three continents have contributed articles, which describe research in language and nonverbal communication in cross-cultural ways. Speech acts and nonverbal acts, as two modes of communication, are inextricably related. These behaviors are seen as organizers of social systems. Linguistic concepts can be observed in nonverbal acts. Rhythm and timing, for example, combine the force and range of vocalizations and movement to make up the suprasegmentals of human interaction. Theories of meaning must incorporate the total human expression. This book goes beyond the beginner's curiosity and poses important questions for research and discussion.
