Reviews
"Language is the very center of social interaction, the stuff out of which social relations are made. In Living Language , Laura Ahearn introduces us to a twenty-first-century linguistic anthropology, configured around a view of language as a material social activity, as something that people do, rather than as an abstract tool that they use. Living Language introduces a growing, vibrant area of study but also serves as an entryway for other social scientists into a rapidly changing field." - Bruce Mannehim , University of Michigan

This edition also features an all-new chapter focusing on multimodal communication including gestures, sign languages, and other forms of nonverbal language. While introducing readers to the fascinating field of linguistic anthropology, Ahearn accentuates the value of an ethnographically grounded approach to the study of language. This second edition of Living Language offers illuminating insights into the myriad ways language influences and shapes cultural norms and social interactions and its increasing relevance in the 21st-century globalized world., Revised and updated, the 2nd Edition of Living Language: An Introduction to Linguistic Anthropology presents an accessible introduction to the study of language in real-life social contexts around the world through the contemporary theory and practice of linguistic anthropology.

    Mistakenly ordered a paperback that I thought was a hardcover, not sellers fault; it was described properly on the listing. Seller still processed a refund the day I went to return the item and let me keep the item anyway. A+++ service. Book arrived quickly in great condition and for a great price. Thank you so much! Amazing seller!

    seller was communicative about my shipment, media mail took a while and tracking wasn't updated frequently, but seller communicated to me very quickly on status. the item came new and wrapped as described, though the packaging in it was packed wasn't sturdy and falling apart when it got to me.
