Reviews

'... this book represents an illuminating interdisciplinary study that broadens the perspective of linguistic analysis by considering not only the context of an individual interaction, but also the cognitive mechanisms that give rise to the emergent grammar of spontaneous speech. Without doubt, this book can be used as a good reference book for students and researchers who are interested in interactional linguistics and cognitive linguistics.' Haiping Wu, Journal of Pragmatics 'This monograph evidently carries massive implications for research into grammar and linguistic structure since it broadens the notion of grammar and provides an alternative approach to it, enabling researchers to investigate the emergent grammar of speech from an integrated perspective, differing from the monolithic, 'fixed-code' and sentence based approach to language and grammar through which grammar has been described and analysed. The book is also of immense significance to academics in discourse studies, a field where spontaneous spoken language data have become the mainstream research objects.'
