How to do Discourse Analysis: A Toolkit
"This is without a doubt the most accessible and user-friendly book on discourse analysis to come along for many years. It is an ideal companion to Gee’s previous book,An Introduction to Discourse Analysis, and will make for an ideal textbook in a wide range of undergraduate courses in language, linguistics and English studies."Rodney Jones,City University of Hong Kong, Hong Kong  "As an ideal companion toAn Introduction to Discourse Analysis: Theory and Method,How to do Discourse Analysis: A Toolkitis more hands-on in its approach to understanding and applying discourse analysis in research, teaching, and learning. It is a pleasure to read Gee’s simple, clear, humor-injected prose. Part of his brilliance derives from not only making theory accessible, but also anchoring discourse in authentic contexts. The book is essential reading for students and scholars exploring the nuances of language."Jennifer Rowsell,Rutgers Graduate School of Education, USA
