<P dir=ltr align=justify>Gender and Language: Theory and Practice</I> offers a
broad and accessible introduction to the study of gender and language for those
new to the subject. The book introduces both theoretical and applied
perspectives, identifying and explaining the relevant frameworks and drawing on
a range of activities/examples of how gender is constructed in discourse.</P>
<P dir=ltr align=justify></P>
<P dir=ltr align=justify>The book is divided into 3 parts. Part I covers the
historical background to the study of gender and language, moving on through
past theoretical approaches to a discussion of current debates in the field,
with a particular emphasis on the role of discourse analysis. In Part II gender
is examined in context, with chapters focusing on gender and language in
education, the mass media, and the workplace. Finally, Part III briefly looks at
key principles and approaches to gender and language research, and includes
activities, study questions, and resources for teachers in the field.</P>
<P dir=ltr align=justify></P>
<P dir=ltr align=justify>Rich with examples and investigative activities drawn
from current debates and events, this book is designed to be appealing and
informative and will capture the imaginations of readers from a range of
backgrounds and disciplines.</P>
