Abstract
Persuasion theories are a lot like noses; everybody has one, some big, some small, and no two exactly alike. This chapter reviews and evaluates some of the better-known theories and models of persuasion, social influence, and compliance gaining. The goal is to provide you with a general framework for understanding these theories and models as they relate to the chapters that follow.
