Description:
Kuala Lumpur: University of Malaya Press, 2000. First edition. Paperback. As New. The author seeks to diverge from the traditional grammatical and phonological study of language to look at verbal communication in a Malaysian setting. The research was carried out through analysing video recordings of Malaysian speakers. One of the main findings of the work was that overlaps and interruptions could more often been seen as forms of co-operation than of conflict. 234 pages with a bibliography. Weight: 0.6kg.
