Description

This text offers a critical review of the major approaches to the study of everyday explaining and arguing. Illuminating the range of contemporary approaches with concrete examples, the author's concern is to test theory against practice. He draws a picture of explanation as a social achievement of speaker and audience, involving a balance between delicate manoeuvre and the exercise of discursive power. The book should be of interest to students and lecturers in social psychology, sociolinguistics and communication studies.
