Abstract
Fourteen contributors present different approaches to conversational analysis. Their analyses of the B-K conversation, which appears as an appendix, will present a challenge to the reader who enjoys weighing the relative merits of each, and who seeks creative solutions to the problems of face-to-face interactions. The book also serves a useful function in getting an extensively transcribed and analyzed conversation into the public domain. '...an excellent resource for scholars interested in the growing area of conversation and coherence as a part of the total study of human communication.' -- Journal of Communication, Winter 1985
