Apgar, Kathryn, John Eaton and Donald P. Riley. Parent-child communication. New York: Family Service Association of America, 1977.
It will not be used in the presentation because it doesn’t provide information about the type of nonverbal communication that would be useful in our presentation. It talks about effective listening and problem solving skills. It addresses communication in the verbal and stuff you do inside your head communication areas. It provides good examples of making handouts and outlines for a presentation though.

Barnhart, Sara A. Introduction to interpersonal communication. New York: Thomas Y. Crowell Company, 1976.
It will be used in the presentation because it has various tidbits of nonverbal interpersonal communication interspersed throughout the book that is not too hard to find because of the good index. It has a short chapter about nonverbal communication but most of the chapter is spent describing the terms associated with nonverbal interpersonal communication and with pictures that don’t enhance the ability of the reader to interpret nonverbal communication in real life. It has a good index.

Bolstad, Richard and Margot Hamblett. Transforming Communication: Leading-edge professional and personal skills. New Zealand: Longman, 1997.
It will not be used in the presentation because it doesn’t provide information about the type of nonverbal communication that would be useful in our presentation. Formerly published as Communication Caring. Has one page about the nonverbal actions of listening that the increase the chances of a successful communication. Has one and a half pages with very general useful information about mirroring and rapport but I don’t think I could use it in our presentation because these skills are not very useful when disciplining someone or try to get someone to not do an action through having a discussion about it. He recommends another book Unlimited Power for more information about this subject. It has an index and further reading page. It has very good information about verbal ways to improve your communication skills with many types of people. They talk about how makes it harder to have positive communication but doesn’t discuss the nonverbal actions associated with this communication.

Chinn, Philip C., Robert H. Walters, and Joyce Winn. Two-way talking with parents of special children: a process of positive communication. Missouri: C.V. Mosby Company, 1978.
This is going to be used in the presentation because it has four pages about nonverbal communication that can be used when communicating with anyone about serious topics that two different people may have very different views on. The principles in this book seem like they could be used in any kind of parent child relationship. One chapter is specifically dedicated to the family dynamics in families with special children. Three chapters practically explain when this type of communication is useful and how to use in many types of parent-child interactions. This type of communication includes many aspects of traditional communication including developing assertion as a skill.

Dossey, Barbara Montgomery, Cathie E. Guzzetta and Lynn Keegan. ed. Holistic Nursing: A Handbook for Practice. 4th ed. London: Jones and Bartlett Publishers, 2005.
Each chapter is based on a technique or practice and includes a section on Nurse Healer Objectives, Definitions, Conclusion, Directions for Future Research and Nurse Healer Reflections. Each chapter also includes short writings about other aspects of the technique or practice. At least two chapters of this book relate to nonverbal family communication. Chapter 24 provides an overview of current touch therapies and a few touch therapies that are being researched for the future. This would have been useful in the presentation if we were going to talk about physical ways of comforting family members. Chapter 31 provides an overview of how to use aromatherapy in the most beneficial way (including common mistakes people make and two case studies). It includes a page description about how to achieve effective communication and how active listening is a part of the effective communication that nurses practice. The aromatherapy will be used in the first part of the presentation after the introduction and statistics when we are talking about how to make a situation more positive when talking about sex and drugs with your children.

Feldstein, Stanley and Aron W. Siegman, ed. Nonverbal Behavior and Communication. 2nd ed. New Jersey: Lawrence Erlbaum Associates, Inc., 1986.
Not very practical because there is more space spent describing the theory and testing of the concept than describing how the concept can be applied in human interactions. If the aspect of how the concept can be applied in human interactions is explained at all, it is explained in a concise and vague manner. It has no diagrams, sketches or pictures but does have an author and subject index.

James, Judi. People talk: the skills of positive communication and customer care. London: The Industrial Society, 1997.
This source is not going to be used in the presentation because it didn’t provide any new information. It had two pages about nonverbal communication that were helpful because it confirmed general concepts that the other sources had discussed. It had a practical chapter on how to relieve stress so that you can come into a serious discussion about things like sex or drugs in a positive frame of mind. However, this isn’t the type of nonverbal communication that we are going to be focusing on in our presentation.

Manusov, Valerie and Miles L. Patterson. Ed. The SAGE handbook of nonverbal communication. London: Sage Publications, 2006.
It is not very useful for this project because it focuses on explaining the type of nonverbal criteria that studies have analyzed and how that criteria could be improved or how when the results of the research are analyzed further research could be done. They suggest specific ways that research could be further enhanced in that area of nonverbal communication. For example, in the article Nonverbal and Verbal Communication: Hand Gestures and Facial Displays as Part of Language Use in Face-to-Face Dialogue, there were only four descriptions of nonverbal communication communicating an emotion or creating an atmosphere change and these were not applicable to situations where parents are communicating with their children. Possibly ch 17 and 20 would be helpful
