Abstract:
"Language and gender is a dynamic and popular area of sociolinguistics. Women, Men and Politeness focuses on the specific issue of the ways in which women and men express politeness verbally." "Women, Men and Politeness will be of interest to second year undergraduate students following courses on sociolinguistics and language and gender and will be supplementary reading for students of sociology, anthropology, women's studies and English literature. It will also be of value to counsellors, teachers and administrators dealing with problems in the workplace arising from gender differences in language use."--BOOK JACKET.
