Reviews for Exploring Intercultural Communication: Language in Action

'This book provides a lucid introduction to the field of intercultural communication which has grown steadily over the past decade. As in the earlier edition, key domains (e.g. classroom, workplace, business, family) are covered with engaging real world case studies and practical exercises. The second edition provides additional and interesting new material and new perspectives, such as the concept of turbulence in intercultural communication, as well as updated references, accurately reflecting recent advances in the field.' Janet Holmes, Victoria University of Wellington, New Zealand 'This revised, expanded and updated edition of Zhu Hua's popular textbook has become even more attractive in its detailed coverage of key practical and theoretical issues in intercultural communication studies. Varied topics, lively style and useful activities will appeal to students around the world.' Adam Jaworski, The University of Hong Kong, Hong Kong
