Dear colleagues,

The titles below are currently available for review in
_Discourse&Society_ and/or _Discourse Studies_  and/or _Discourse and
Communication_. If you are interested in serving as a
reviewer, pls contact the book review editor at ingrid.piller at unibas.ch with
the title/s you are interested in, your full postal address, and a *brief*
description of your qualifications, research interests and fields of
expertise.

The following points might help you in your decision whether or not to
offer to review books in your field of expertise:

*Book reviewing is an important service to the academic community.

*Your review should normally reach me within three months of your
receipt of the book. 

*The normal length of a book review in our journals is 1,000 words. Your
review should provide an overview of the contents of the book as well
as a well-argued judgment regarding its place in the field and its likely
importance to the readers of our journals. Mere content summaries are
undesirable. 

*Further information about each journal is available at these websites:
http://dcm.sagepub.com; http://das.sagepub.com/; http://dis.sagepub.com/

*Your review will normally be published within twelve months after
acceptance of your manuscript. Following publication of the issue which

Thank you for your attention and best wishes,
Ingrid
