Abstract:
Now available in Paperback!
In today's globalized world of international contact and multicultural interaction, effective intercultural communication is increasingly seen as a pre-requisite for social harmony and organisational success. This handbook takes a "problem-solving" approach to the various issues that arise in real-life intercultural interaction. The editors have brought together experts from a range of disciplines, including linguistics, psychology and anthropology, to provide a multi-disciplinary perspective on the field, whilst simultaneously anchoring it in Applied Linguistics.
