Communicating in a Noisy World.

Abstract

The proliferation of information in today's society is glutting communications channels and making it ever more difficult to get a message through. Although briefly reviewing advancements in communications technology, this paper concentrates on the prosaic presentation of textual and graphic material in our day-to-day commerce with people. It examines the barriers we create--sometimes with the help of new technologies--that blunt our messages and confuse and discourage the intended recipients. (Author)
