Communication and Relational Maintenance1993
by Daniel J. Canary
Communication and Relational Maintenance addresses the question "How do people maintain their personal relationships?" Unlike the published works in this field that focus on relationship initiation or dissolution, this volume discusses the everyday processes used to maintain an on-going relationship. It discusses interpersonal communication, social-psychological factors relevant to maintenance, and the resolution of conflict.
