This book combines an authoritative examination of the field of discourse-based research with practical guidance on research design and development. The book is not prescriptive but instead invites expansive, innovative thinking about what discourse is, why it matters to people at particular sites and how it can be investigated. The authors identify a set of questions that, they argue, are crucial for understanding discourse. Part I of the book explores the implications of these questions, providing a comprehensive survey of relevant scholars, theories, concepts and methodologies. Part II addresses these implications, setting out a multi-perspectival approach to resourcing and integrating micro and macro perspectives in the description, interpretation and explanation of data. Part III offers wide-ranging resources to support further reflection and future research. Ultimately, this book offers a new research approach for students, researchers and practitioners in Applied Linguistics toencourage and support research that can be truly impactful through its relevance to social and professional practice.

We live in world increasingly shaped by risk, a fact underscored by recent events in the financial markets, science and technology, environmental policy and biosecurity, law enforcement and criminal justice. Risk assessment has become a central concern of governments, organisations and the professions, and the communication of risk is a crucial part of professional work. Exploring how risk is discursively constructed across these domains is therefore central to our understanding of how professional practice affects people's lives. Communicating Risk takes up this challenge, with contributions from leading researchers and practitioners that examine key issues of risk communication across diverse professional domains.

Linguistic and cultural diversities are raising profound challenges and new opportunities for health practitioners, consumers, and researchers in applied linguistics. On a global scale, increasing mobility, changing demographics and health practices are adding to this complexity in all areas of health provision. The Handbook of Intercultural Communication in Health Care provides a wide-ranging view of methodological and conceptual directions in the field, bringing together established and emergent researchers and practitioners from diverse geographical regions, health specialisations, and sites of communication. This unique grouping offers insights into domains of research that are at the forefront in exploring and addressing issues of communication in this complex landscape. The five sections cover issues raised by expertise and accountability; trust, ethics and autonomy; access and equity; teams and collaboration; and education and training. Prominent researchers introduce and contextualise the key themes addressed in each section and invited health professionals engage with these themes through the lens of clinical practice. In this way, the book is the first to establish a bridge between research and practice: it provides a distinctive focus on the relevance of intercultural communication research in health care, the range of modes of involvement of participants, practitioners and researchers, and the subsequent impact of research on lives, practices, professions and organisations.
