Comprehensive, innovative, and easy-to-use, Introducing Pragmatics is an indispensable resource for scientists and students interested in how real-life pragmatic language failures shape our understanding of effective communication. Not only does the textbook contain a wealth of material on theory and experimental studies, but also wide-ranging topics from a multi-disciplinary perspective. Professor Elly Ifantidou, National and Kapodistrian University of Athens, Greece Introducing Pragmatics: A Clinical Approach is an introductory popularization of pragmatics and clinical pragmatics, and its publication will undoubtedly help to further arouse the interest and attention of the linguistic community, especially of scholars in pragmatics, to devote their intellectual effort to pragmatic impairment. In addition, this book can steer linguists to enhance their interdisciplinary awareness and gain insights from cognitive science, speech pathology, clinical science, etc., and to seek interdisciplinary cooperation for better solutions to pragmatic disorders.
