Isabelle Leme, Lakehead University, Canada "Those who, like me, have used this book in their language and gender courses, will warmly welcome this third edition, which brings both the material surveyed and the perspectives covered into the 21st century. Jennifer Coates' lucid and engaging style continues to make this a very attractive text." Janet Holmes, Victoria University of Wellington, New Zealand "Women, Men and Language has served readers since its first publication as an accessible and balanced guide to the literature on gender differences in language. This revised third edition extends the book's scope to reflect recent developments in theory and research, while retaining the clarity of earlier versions. Informative, wide-ranging and always readable, the updated text provides 21st century students and their teachers with an invaluable overview of an increasingly complex field." Deborah Cameron, University of Oxford, UK "Coates' work has had a major influence on the study of language and gender, and one could easily argue that her book,Women, Men and Language, basically created the field." Scott F. Kiesling, University of Pittsburgh, USA
Jennifer Coates is Emeritus Professor of English Language and Linguistics at the University of Roehampton, UK.
