Reviews for A Cultural Approach to Interpersonal Communication: Essential Readings

?This style, and the wide-ranging subject matter, should encourage both student and academic readers to follow the editors? suggestion to see the material as a stepping stone towards their own research, rather than ?the final word? (p. 5). The reference lists at the end of the chapters could be another of these stones.? (Discourse Studies, 16 January 2014) ?A splendid collection of classics and contemporary analyses. Theory, case studies, ethnographic assignments and advice on reading work together to enable students to analyze their own communicative lives.? - Kathryn A. Woolard, University of California, San Diego ?Monaghan and Goodman have assembled a treasure trove in this Second Edition ? a rich source of insight into the key role of culture in understanding interpersonal communication.? - Deborah Tannen, Georgetown University
