This innovative, comprehensive course textbook uses a clinical approach to explore pragmatics and pragmatic language skills.

Drawing on authentic, real-life examples of pragmatic breakdown in children and adults who have developmental or acquired language disorders, Louise Cummings expertly guides readers to core insights and principles for understanding where context and meaning in human communication meet. Key features include:

  • Chapter-opening learning objectives & chapter-closing summaries.
  • Authentic illustrative cases of atypical pragmatic interaction.
  • Exercises for checking knowledge and understanding.
  • Annotated recommended further reading.
  • A detailed glossary of important terms in pragmatics and clinical linguistics.

Aimed equally at undergraduate and graduate students who are coming to pragmatics for the first time, the text discusses the key issues and concepts of this field in a fascinating new way. With a common, easy-to-follow structure across chapters and a wealth of pedagogical resources, this is an essential text for students of linguistics and applied linguistics, communication studies, speech-language pathology, psychology and cognitive science, and beyond.



This innovative, comprehensive course textbook uses a clinical approach to explore pragmatics and pragmatic language skills.

Arvustused

Comprehensive, innovative, and easy-to-use, Introducing Pragmatics is an indispensable resource for scientists and students interested in how real-life pragmatic language failures shape our understanding of effective communication. Not only does the textbook contain a wealth of material on theory and experimental studies, but also wide-ranging topics from a multi-disciplinary perspective.

Professor Elly Ifantidou, National and Kapodistrian University of Athens, Greece

Introducing Pragmatics: A Clinical Approach is an introductory popularization of pragmatics and clinical pragmatics, and its publication will undoubtedly help to further arouse the interest and attention of the linguistic community, especially of scholars in pragmatics, to devote their intellectual effort to pragmatic impairment. In addition, this book can steer linguists to enhance their interdisciplinary awareness and gain insights from cognitive science, speech pathology, clinical science, etc., and to seek interdisciplinary cooperation for better solutions to pragmatic disorders.

Jiegen Zhang, Australian Review of Applied Linguistics (August 2024)

By presenting a novel clinical perspective on pragmatics, this insightful volume enhances our grasp of key pragmatic concepts and principles. The in-depth analysis of the different ways in which pragmatics can break down in children and adults makes for compelling reading.

Yulan Gong, Guangdong University of Foreign Studies, China for Discourse Studies 2025, Vol. 27(2)
