On pag. 162 I liked what the author wrote: "CCP understanding ought to start in our very families, neighborhoods, and communities. we may find that the people next door, our colleagues or coworkers, our teachers or fellow students, have very different ways of speaking. Whithout understanding these differences, we may fail to recognize opportunities to establish the social, educational, and workplace networks that support successful communication, thus hindering development of respect and harmany."
