Synopsis
This alphabetic guide introduces popular terms used in the study of language and society.

Clearly written by an authority in the field, this glossary provides full coverage of both traditional and contemporary terminology, including the relatively new areas within sociolinguistics of sign language, gay language and cross-cultural communication.
