<p class="MsoNormal">Hi All,<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">I sincerely hope that this is an appropriate use of this email list… and that someone will let me know if it isn’t.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">I have recently signed a contract with Cognella to write an intro-level undergraduate intercultural communication textbook. Tentatively titled
<i>Making Culture: The Practitioner’s Guide to Intercultural Interaction</i>), the book is not an introduction to the entire subfield of ICC, rather it offers students a way to think about and study cultural communication practices for the purpose of enhancing
coordinated interaction with those they treat as cultural others. The book’s argument is founded on a theoretical and conceptual framework I am borrowing from the ethnography of communication, discourse analysis, and linguistic anthropology. My purpose is
to generate excitement about intercultural interactions among future readers, which I will attempt by maintaining a practical focus throughout the book and by including a large number of case studies and anecdotes (including my own and my former students’).
<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Cognella have asked me to recommend potential reviewers. They are planning to send out the proposal and the first four chapters for review next week. I have recently made the realization that most (if not all) of the folks I recommended
as potential reviewers will also be subscribers of this list. Allow me to ask you:
<b>If you do receive an invitation to review my manuscript from Cognella, could you please consider accepting it?</b> I know this a quite a lot to ask, but I hope that at least some of you will find this an interesting intellectual challenge – and/or a good
way to help out a fellow ECer.<o:p></o:p></p>

<p class="MsoNormal">Thank you, and cheers,<o:p></o:p></p>
