"This solid contribution to research in the field will be appreciated not only by psycholinguists, but more generally by cognitive and social psychologists as well."—CHOICE"...this text is excellent reading. For scholars interested in interpersonal communication, this book should provide a gold mine of ideas for ways to integrate cognitive and social processes in their research, both methodologically and conceptually."—Applied Cognitive Psychology"Traditionally, the study of the social dimensions of interpersonal communication has been separated from the study of the cognitive dimensions. Recent research efforts from both social and cognitive psychology, however, have made apparent the value of integrating both approaches for increasing our understanding of language use. The volume by Fussell and Kreuz is an excellent illustration of these efforts."—Studies in Second Language Acquisition"...the issues presented prove to be an interesting exploration into the fascinating domain of interpersonal communication and they are relevant enough to trigger debate among scholars....provides a stimulating perspective on how speaker and hearer take into account each other's perspective and how they are cognitively influenced by this perspective-taking."—TESL-EJ
