Face-threatening speech acts such as refusals present particular
problems for all human beings.  These problems are exacerbated when
individuals are not familiar with the culture in which these speech acts
must be performed and do not have the communicative or linguistic
facility to fully express their meanings.  This book takes an in-depth
look at the speech act of refusals as performed in English by native
speakers of Japanese.
