...This is a very interesting and useful monograph. It is written in clear, accessible prose. Lipovsky compares her findings to those reported in the popular literature on job interviews, which aim to help jobseekers achieve success, and concludes with the hope that her book will contribute to this same enterprise. Negotiating Solidarity: A Social Linguistic Approach to Job Interviews is therefore an example of an academic book that will have a readership beyond academia. Within academic circles, it will be of interest to researchers working with systemic functional analysis, face, and politeness theories. Laura Cullahan, Linguist List 22.2871, July 2011.
