“The subtitle The Essential Readings aptly
describes this collection. It provides a convenient source of
classic primary texts for graduate courses in cross-cultural
communication, as well as for personal professional libraries. The
organization of articles as foundational/ theoretical works, case
studies, cultural content and identity pieces, and applications to
‘real-world’ problems makes this Reader highly
adaptable for diverse foci of interest within interactional
sociolinguistics.” Muriel Saville-Troike,
University of Arizona
"A significant resource for both undergraduate and graduate
students studying sociolinguistics, communication, social
anthropology, and social psychology." Journal of
Sociolinguistics
“As a collection, this volume will definitely be of
interest to researchers, instructors, and students of intercultural
communication…Kiesling and Paulston have successfully met the
challenge of deciding what to include. The selection and especially
the sequencing of the work is well motivated…Care has been
taken to include essays that concentrate on presenting issues from
the perspective of speakers from a less dominant group.”

"This book offers foundational and new theoretical readings, as well as case studies of cultural and sub-cultural contact and conflicts in the 'real world'." Pragmatics
