Spoken and Written Discourse

A Multi-Disciplinary Perspective

• Gebundenes Buch

Produktbeschreibung

This volume presents a systematic, reasonably exhaustive, and critical view of the existing scientific literature on the differences between speech and writing and, particularly, the cognitive and cultural implications of these differences. It is unique in its multidisciplinary scope and analytical depth as it brings together, for the first time, this multiplicity of theory and evidence from varied disciplines.
