A Cultural Approach to Interpersonal Communication cover

Featuring several all-new chapters, revisions, and updates, the Second Edition of A Cultural Approach to Interpersonal Communication presents an interdisciplinary collection of key readings that explore how interpersonal communication is socially and culturally mediated.

  • Includes key readings from the fields of cultural and linguistic anthropology, sociolinguistics, and communication studies
  • Features new chapters that focus on digital media
  • Offers new introductory chapters and an expanded toolkit of concepts that students may draw on to link culture, communication, and community
  • Expands the Ethnographer’s Toolkit to include an introduction to basic concepts followed by a range of ethnographic case studies

“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)
