This fully revised and updated text draws upon students' daily experiences with linguistic concepts, allowing them to integrate terminology and build analytical skills as they develop a deeper understanding of how language facilitates our lives and, collectively, our society.
Features of the third edition include:

- Updated and expanded coverage of topics throughout, including animal communication systems, language and gender and educational linguistics
- New and refreshed online resources offering additional support for teachers and students.

Equipped with illustrations, diagrams and a wealth of examples of language in use, this book brings the study of language to life, using a wide range of materials including text from public signs, newspapers, magazines, digital platforms, snippets from real-life conversations as well as dialogue from print, film and television.
