People who live in towns and cities don't always understand country life. This is a true story about an incident that happened to a town dweller when he drove about on country roads. He was interested in the harvesting, cropping, and farming of all kinds of animals. He still laughs about his country adventure.

Despite some 30 years of intercultural research and thousands of articles, there
are often insufficient intercultural findings and applications disseminated to the
appropriate parties to “make a difference” in global relations. And, even when it is
disseminated, there is inadequate application of intercultural communication
competence to create a difference in the world. Added to this is the problem that
there has not been enough practical research undertaken or disseminated,
despite the ...
The properties and function of human communication. Called “one of the best books ever about human communication,” and a perennial bestseller, Pragmatics of Human Communication has formed the foundation of much contemporary research into interpersonal communication, in addition to laying the groundwork for context-based approaches to psychotherapy. The authors present the simple but radical idea that problems in life often arise from issues of communication, rather than from deep psychological disorders, reinforcing their conceptual explorations with case studies and well-known literary examples. Written with humor and for a variety of readers, this book identifies simple properties and axioms of human communication and demonstrates how all communications are actually a function of their contexts. Topics covered in this wide-ranging book include: the origins of communication; the idea that all behavior is communication; meta-communication; the properties of an open system; the family as a system of communication; the nature of paradox in psychotherapy; existentialism and human communication.
2.1 Introduction The conclusions reached in the first chapter generally
emphasized the inapplicability of many traditional psychiatric notions to our
proposed framework and so may seem to leave very little on which the study of
the pragmatics of human communication could be based. We want to show next
that this is not so. However, to do this, we have to start with some simple
properties of communication that have fundamental interpersonal implications. It
will be seen that these ...

Is there anything more important for a child than learning to read? Well can you imagine what it would be like if they couldn't read? You can appreciate that their entire future depends on being able to do that very thing and do it well We tend to take for granted that our children will learn to read because most native speakers learn to do it naturally without ever knowing that it even happened, let alone how it happened. However, keep in mind that those who read well, consciously or unconsciously, understand that the alphabet is not just a series of letters put together randomly, but is in fact a code. Good readers have an unconscious understanding of how that code works. Reading English properly means being to make sense of the code. Reading therefore means being able to 'decode'. However, not everyone learns to read properly and learning difficulties at school are often a sign of underlying reading problems. Now think about the millions of second and foreign language learners who are forced to learn English at school but won't learn to read properly because they simply don't have enough contact with English beyond a couple of hours in the classroom every week and won't learn to decode as a result. Learning English as a second or foreign language is hard enough as anyone who has ever taught it will testify. Now imagine just how much harder it must be for those children who look at the words in their text book and simply can't make sense of them but still have to learn them whether they want to or not Can you imagine what it would be like to learn a language if the words you have to learn appear to you as a mass of random letters without any particular discernable pattern? Readalong solves this problem by helping English language learners unlock the Alphabetic code. Readalong uses a phono-graphemic approach to learning to read which mimics the way good readers learn to read naturally and puts it all together in a simple but graduated way over four steps. It would be fair to say that learning to read well is a necessary, even critical step in a child's development. If that's true, the question is, can your child decode? Can your child Readalong?
