Human communication, 'as the saying
goes, is a clash of symbols' it covers a
multitude of signs. But it is more than
media and messages, information and
persuasion; it also meets a deeper need
and serves a higher purpose. Whether
clear or garbled, tumultuous or silent,
deliberate or fatally inadvertent,
communication is the ground of
meeting and the foundation of
community. It is, in short, the essential
human connection.
