Add your own review!

Overview

Cognitive linguistics is a relatively new theory of language that challenges many of the basic assumptions of traditional approaches. In Cognitive Linguistics: An Introduction, David Lee, drawing on his long-standing interest in the relationship between language and perspective, sets out to make the theory accessible to readers who have no prior training in the discipline. With its unique approach to the subject, Cognititive Linguistics will appeal to students and scholars of linguistics, as well as those in literacy theory, cultural studies, conversation analysis, psychlogy, philosophy, cognitive science, and sociology.
