Editorial Reviews

Review

'Without doubt the book teaches the reader to be more attentive and
critical towards essentialism, and this is the great achievement of this
book.'
- The Linguist List

'It will be welcomed by teachers looking for resources with which to approach culture and communication from a non-essentialised position, and by students of linguistics, communication and intercultural communication who need a source of inspiration, ideas and clear principles with which to engage with intercultural research and study.' - BaaL News

'This book is a useful reminder that culture is constructed, perpetuated and changed through small acts of communication in everyday life. It offers a clear, practical methodology for escaping the essentialization of people, behaviors and events ... Most enjoyable are the illustrative anecdotes of intercultural (mis)communication presented for analysis and interpretation.' – Claire Kramsch, University of California, Berkeley, USA
