Reviews
Review from previous edition [A]n excellent textbook in pragmatics. ... Huang's achievement is impressive * Journal of Pragmatics *
This new publication by Professor Huang ... gives a very thorough introduction to this subdiscipline in linguistics, which is becoming increasingly interwined with psychology and neurolinguistics. ... I would therefore recommend this introductory text to any postgraduates or researchers in psycholinguistics * The Psychologist *
[T]he book is very thorough in its coverage of topics within the field. Mindful of its student audience, it also has extensive study questions, examples, and glossaries. My overall impression is that it is a valuable textbook to anyone in the field of pragmatics * The Linguist List *
