Create a flyer for "Conversation Analysis and Discourse Analysis"

This book is very clearly and well written and bridges the gap in the text-book literature between conversation analysis and discourse analysis from basic concepts and principles to more detailed processes. I had ordered this evaluation copy thinking that it may be suitable for final year students studying for their dissertation; it is, but is more suitable for PG students rather than UG, although high achieving UG students will also find it useful

Fantastic introduction to CA and DA

The book gives an excellent introduction to these important approaches to analysing social situations and qualitative and subjective data. The initial chapter in particular, does a good job of explaining the origins and purpose of the techniques in accessible languange. But the book is also punctuated with some very helpful, illustrative examples that serve to further reinforce the importance of these techniques and precisely why the more traditional, objective approaches to analysis are inadequate in these types of social situations.

An excellent text that is an invaluable guide and reference book on Conversation and Discourse Analysis. I highly recommend.

Slightly beyond the level of the other course texts on CA and Discourse Analysis, this provides a nice critical overview of the topic area, suitable for the students who read beyond the basic reading list.

An excellent reference guide for tutors and learners alike.

This is a great guide to conversation and discourse analysis. I recommend it to dissertation students who are making decisions about their method and need an accessible but detailed introduction.

Recommended to first year MA Innovation Management students encountering Discourse Analysis/Theory for the first time. This book articulates well the relationship between theory/theories & practical methodologies/methods. The relationship between analysis, critique & synthesis is well handled, making this book recommended to PG students not only for its content, but as a good example of academic writing too.

I found this book a bot too detailed for our undergraduates, but use it as essential reading for dissertations and higher level students.

I found the level of this book too high for our undergraduate students but I do recommend it for our dissertations/MA students.
