Book Synopsis Making Sense of Discourse Analysis by : Brian Paltridge
Book excerpt: "Making sense of discourse analysis brings together the key systems of discourse analysis. The book overviews and explains communicative language theory, speech act theory, conversational analysis, genre analysis, and critical discourse analysis. Each chapter provides a historical context, definitions for key components of each system or theory being described, textual examples with explanation, and structured activities for readers to try out the systems and theories for themselves." --p. v.
