Women, Men and Language has long been established as a seminal text
in the field of language and gender, providing an account of the
many ways in which language and gender intersect. In this
pioneering book, bestselling author Jennifer Coates explores
linguistic gender differences, introducing the reader to a wide
range of sociolinguistic research in the field. Written in a clear
and accessible manner, this book introduces the idea of gender as a
social construct, and covers key topics such as conversational
practice, same sex talk, conversational dominance, and children's
acquisition of gender-differentiated language, discussing the
social and linguistic consequences of these patterns of talk. Here
reissued as a Routledge Linguistics Classic, this book contains a
brand new preface which situates this text in the modern day study
of language and gender, covering the postmodern shift in the
understanding of gender and language, and assessing the book's
impact on the field. Women, Men and Language continues to be
essential reading for any student or researcher working in the area
of language and gender.
