More About the Author
Product Description
Review
'Women, Men and Language has served readers since its first publication as an accessible and balanced guide to the literature on gender differences in language. This revised edition extends the book's scope to reflect recent developments in theory and research, while retaining the clarity of earlier versions. Informative, wide-ranging and always readable, the updated text provides 21st century students and their teachers with an invaluable overview of an increasingly complex field.'
Deborah Cameron, Rupert Murdoch Professor of Language and Communication, University of Oxford

Product Description
Women, Men and Language is an essential introduction to the key area of language and gender. It sketches the historical background, summarises recent research and introduces students to the key issues in the field using an unpretentious and clear style.
Gender is a hugely popular topic and this book provides the answer to questions such as ‘Do men and women talk differently?’; ‘In what ways do they talk differently’; ‘Does Language play a role in male dominance?’.

Academic but excellent
25 May 2002
Format:Paperback
This text takes a look at differences between communication styles of men and women. It is an academic text, full of statistics, studies, and so on. Nonetheless, it is an amazing source of information about the differences between communication styles based on gender.
