Table of ContentsReviewsThis is an excellent and most welcome addition to the range of teaching materials in Spanish linguistics. It is original in concept, being an overview of the principal areas of current interest in pragmatics using Spanish-language data, presented by twenty-two established specialists in succinct terms suitable for a student readership. It is very clearly written yet does not shy away from the use of technical terms, which are always clearly defined. Each chapter is accompanied by a selection of practical tasks which also encourage critical reflection on methodology; the last chapter, which gives training in how to set up a research project, is particularly valuable both for undergraduates and postgraduates. Quite apart from the sound instruction it affords as a coursebook for a dedicated course on Spanish pragmatics, it is approachable to anyone interested in its wealth of engaging examples of practical language use across the Spanish-speaking world.

Pountain, Emeritus Professor of Spanish Linguistics, Queen Mary University of London """This is an excellent and most welcome addition to the range of teaching materials in Spanish linguistics.
