Rezensionen

'I am daunted to be writing a review of a book that says everything so well... The entire book would be an excellent resource for a language and gender, sociolinguistics, or gender studies course... All of this in Cameron's desert-sky clear prose, coupled with her forceful argumentation, will engage students into the field in a way that a that a textbook would not.' - Scott F.Kiesling, University of Pittsburgh, USA
