"This third edition of The Ethnography of Communication is a
real treasure. For someone new to linguistic anthropology in
general, or to the ethnography of communication in particular, it
provides a thorough and accessible introduction to the basic
contents and concepts, vocabulary, methodologies and theories of
contemporary research in the intertwined topics of language and
culture. For others, it is a refresher course and a briefing on the
progress of the past couple of decades... a thoughtful and
important work." Journal of Multilingual and Multicultural
Development
"If you read one book on the ethnography of communication, read
this one. Its coverage of what has been a major area of study for
scholars in sociolinguistics, communication, and linguistic
anthropology for the past three decades is comprehensive,
insightful, and, in this third edition, completely brought up to
currency with developments in the field." Ron Scollon,
Georgetown University
"This is a fine introductory text and an excellent reference
volume as well. In short, it is a first-rate work by a world-class
scholar." TESOL Quarterly
"The Ethnography of Communication more than meets the pointed criteria for a good textbook. In addition, it is well written, interesting, and enlightening." Language and Social Psychology
