Abstract:

This book is an attempt to bring out issues related to communication
studies in general and Urdu electronic and print media in particular. This
concise overview may enhance a better understanding of communication
studies. This is, therefore, the first linguistic study on Urdu print and
electronic media. As such, it should not only open many new perspectives in
various areas it presents, but also incites others to further this kind of
study in both scope and depth. 

The experimental approach employed to perform semantic feature analysis of
related word-pairs addresses fundamental analytical issues concerning the
linguistic and psycholinguistic aspects of meaning in a strikingly original
and perceptive way. In this regard, the book makes an impressive and
original contribution to socio-psychological aspects of meaning and its
effects on readers. The theoretical and methodological ideas and models it
contains should merit the interest not only to the scholars of language and
communication but also to linguists, semioticians and psycholinguists.

The LINGUIST List is under the umbrella of Eastern Michigan University and as such 
can receive donations through the EMU Foundation, which is a registered 501(c) Non 
Profit organization. Our Federal Tax number is 38-6005986. These donations can be 
offset against your federal and sometimes your state tax return (U.S. tax payers 
only). For more information visit the IRS Web-Site, or contact your financial advisor.

Many companies also offer a gift matching program, such that they will match any 
gift you make to a non-profit organization. Normally this entails your contacting 
your human resources department and sending us a form that the EMU Foundation fills 
in and returns to your employer. This is generally a simple administrative procedure 
that doubles the value of your gift to LINGUIST, without costing you an extra penny. 
Please take a moment to check if your company operates such a program.

Thank you very much for your support of LINGUIST!
