Abstract:
Note: This is the paperback edition of a previously announced book.
More and more academics and professionals now recognise the contribution
that conversation analysis can make to their work. However, up to now there
has been little attempt to explore the important relationship between this
exciting and rapidly growing field and applied linguistics. The
contributions to this collection, all written from the analytic perspective
of CA, bring together experts from a range of professional fields in order
to demonstrate how CA can make a significant contribution to professional
practice.
As well as appealing to researchers and students in applied linguistics and
the social sciences, the book's practical orientation will also make it
valuable to specialists in a range of fields, including speech therapy,
health communication, retailing, journalism and language teaching. The
combination of academic and analytic rigour with strong practical relevance
makes the collection essential reading for anyone with a serious interest
in professional talk.

Title: Men and the Language of Emotions
Published: 2007
Publisher: Palgrave Macmillan
http://www.palgrave.com
Book URL: http://www.palgrave.com/products/title.aspx?PID=280692
Author: Dariusz Galasinski
Paperback: ISBN: 9780230554313 Pages: 184 Price: U.K. £ 19.99
Abstract:
Note: This is the paperback edition of a previously announced book.
This book challenges the widely held stereotype that men either have an
impoverished emotional life or are inhibited in talking about their
emotions. In this major study of middle-aged and older heterosexual men,
Dariusz Galasinski demonstrates that they talk about their emotions both
indirectly and openly, that masculinity can be constructed in terms of
emotions and emotionality in both men's as well as women's discourse.
Taking a radically contextual notion of identity, the author argues further
for a disassociation of father's identity from biological fatherhood,
demonstrating that men can construct themselves as genderless parents. He
shows how, faced with unemployment or other difficult experiences, men and
women use the same discursive practices in expressing feelings of
helplessness. Finally, the book challenges the notion that gender is
relevant to all social interactions, concluding that class, ethnicity or
employment are fare more significant.
