"It is, to my knowledge, the first book that succeeds in establishing, in a systematic way, strong parallels between language or conversation structures and social organization....This book is essential reading for communication scholars in several respects....Taylor and Van Every's book deserves special attention from organizational communication scholars."

"...an important integrative work."
