The first textbook dedicated to interactional linguistics, focusing on linguistic analyses of conversational phenomena, this introduction provides an overview of the theory and methodology of interactional linguistics. Reviewing recent findings on linguistic practices used in turn construction and turn taking, repair, action formation, ascription, and sequence and topic organization, the book examines the way that linguistic units of varying size—sentences, clauses, phrases, clause combinations, and particles—are mobilised for the implementation of specific actions in talk-in-interaction. A final chapter discusses the implications of an interactional perspective for our understanding of language as well as its variation, diversity, and universality. Supplementary online chapters explore additional topics such as the linguistic organisation of preference, stance, footing, and storytelling, as well as the use of prosody and phonetics, and further practices with language. Featuring summary boxes and transcripts from recordings of everyday conversation, this is an essential resource for advanced undergraduate and postgraduate courses on language in social interaction. • The first textbook dedicated to interactional linguistics, focusing on linguistic analyses of conversational phenomena • Provides an overview of the theory and methodology of interactional linguistics, enabling students to understand how it differs from other approaches to the study of language • Summary boxes provide synopses of the most important points in sections, allowing students to focus on the central issues in each chapter

Available now 2017, 247 x 174 mm, 314pp 9781107480643 | Paperback (Also available as an eBook and in hardback)
Syntax is the system of rules that we subconsciously follow when we build sentences. Whereas the grammar of English (or other languages) might look like a rather chaotic set of arbitrary patterns, linguistic science has revealed that these patterns can actually be understood as the result of a small number of grammatical principles. This lively introductory textbook is designed for undergraduate students in linguistics, English and modern languages with relatively little background in the subject, offering the necessary tools for the analysis of phrases and sentences while at the same time introducing state-ofthe-art syntactic theory in an accessible and engaging way. Guiding students through a variety of intriguing puzzles, striking facts and novel ideas, Introducing Syntax presents contemporary insights into syntactic theory in one clear and coherent narrative, avoiding unnecessary detail and enabling readers to understand the rationale behind technicalities. Aids to learning include highlighted key terms, suggestions for further reading and numerous exercises, placing syntax in a broader grammatical perspective. • Presents the major insights behind syntactic theory in one clear and coherent narrative, avoiding unnecessary technical detail • Suitable for readers from linguistics, literature and English language backgrounds • Pays attention to most canonical phenomena and constructions of English syntax, fitting them into the overall narrative • Features highlighted key terms, chapter introductions and summaries, further reading suggestions, plus numerous exercises
Contents Introduction. The language machine 1. Categories and features 2. Merge 3. Theta theory 4. Case theory 5. Agreement and uninterpretable features

A lively introduction to morphology (how words are put together), this textbook is intended for undergraduates with relatively little background in linguistics. This second edition has been thoroughly updated, including new examples and exercises as well as a detailed introduction to using linguistic corpora to find and analyse morphological data.
This new introduction offers a guide to the types of change at all levels of linguistic structure, as well as the mechanisms behind each type. Based on data from a variety of methods and a huge array of language families, it examines patterns of change, and brings together recent findings. • This new introduction offers a guide to all aspects of language change, with an emphasis on the role of cognition and language use • Each chapter touches on a type of change and maps the directionality of that change so readers can grasp patterns more easily • Within historical linguistics, non-European languages are often overlooked; in this book, examples are given from both European and non-European languages
• • •
‘How-to?’ sections show students how to find data as well as solve problems ‘Challenge’ boxes promote hands-on learning by students Exercises at the ends of chapters encourage students to apply material covered in the preceding chapter

This second edition of Modern Criminal Law of Australia builds on the unique, award-winning approach, and retains the approachable and accessible structure and writing style, of the first edition. It emphasises the importance of statutory interpretation, official discretion, element analysis and sentencing in Australian law, in order to appreciate the meaning and effect of offence provisions. Extracts from legislation are highlighted and, new to this edition, current and pending problems in Australian criminal law are separately identified and investigated. Worked examples conclude each chapter and provide readers with a greater understanding of the application and practicalities of criminal law. Modern Criminal Law of Australia satisfies the Priestley 11 requirement for Criminal Law and Procedure study in Australia. Its insightful approach provides students and practitioners with a detailed understanding of the common law, traditional code and model code systems, as well as the skills to practice law anywhere in Australia.

Learning objectives After studying this chapter, you should be able to: • discuss the role of governments and organisations in promoting the health of our communities via healthy public policy • discuss how physical and social environments can be health-promoting or healthcompromising • discuss the role that communities can play in promoting health • explain how individual health-compromising behaviours can be addressed • discuss the role of health services in promoting health.
‘Big Tobacco’ and public health One of the nine priority areas of the Australian National Tobacco Strategy 2012–2018 is to ‘protect public health policy, including tobacco control policies from tobacco industry interference’ (Commonwealth of Australia, 2012, p. iii). As a result of Australia’s strong tobacco control regulations limiting tobacco promotions, taxing tobacco products and restricting smoking areas, Australia’s smoking prevalence has declined from 37% of adults being smokers in 1977, to 16.1% of Australians 18 years and over smoking daily in 2011–12 (Australian Bureau of Statistics, 2000, 2013). This sharply contrasts with smoking prevalence trends in
