Reviews

Baxter successfully combines key features of a good introductory stance towards her subject, offering clear and accessible overviews of the key themes of power and gender, with a nuanced and rich analysis of empirical data. Her book will therefore appeal to both 'old-timers' as well as 'newcomers' to the study of Bakhtin, gender and power. ... Baxter's work certainly sparks interest and engagement and is likely to lead readers to continue to follow her ideas. (Theresa Lillis, Journal of Sociolinguistics, Vol. 19, 2015)
