"This book is of interest for anthropologists, for researchers interested in discursive analysis of (shifting) power relations, the application of SFL and for methodologists who wish to be inspired by a very creative interplay of distinctive methods of discursive analysis in dialog with social theory. The author, throughout, demonstrates a genuine interest and respect for and commitment to the participants contributions to this research. This is evident through the detailed and careful analyses of their discourses as well as the authors personal contact with those who trusted the data to him."Nicolina Montesano Montessori in Critical Discourse Studies
