A Good Textbook

As a college student who studied Introduction to Linguistics partly using this textbook, I found it very easy to read, yet loaded with interesting information, unique applications, and detailed references which were very helpful for tracking down other resources for research papers. The book is entitled: Langauge and Gender: An Introduction, and it is in fact an introduction, not delving too deep into the many issues, concerns, and concepts of gender issues in language. For my class (an introduction/survey sort of class), this book was perfect.

Great way to learn about gender and communication

This book offered an interesting look into how men and women communicate. It covered topics such as "women's language", "man made language", how men and women tell stories and some of the theories on why men and women talk differently. This book also analyzed previous studies done on language and gender. It was somewhat hard to read some parts of this book because I was not completely familiar with some of the terms. However, I would recomend this book to someone who wants to analyze the relationships between men and women.
