A theoretical overview of the distinctive contribution made by conversation analysis to our understanding of talk in institutional contexts is followed by reports of the contributors’ original empirical research.

“The authors did an excellent job of engaging students by being empathetic to their anxieties while taking a research design course. The authors also present a convincing case of the relevancies of research in daily life by showing how information was used or misused to affect our personal and professional decisions.” -Cherng-Jyh Yen, George Washington University A practice-oriented, non-mathematical approach to understanding, planning, conducting, and interpreting research in educationPractical and applied, Designing and Conducting Research in Education is the perfect first step for stude

With the end of the Cold War, the United States has entered an entirely new security environment that has required the U.S. Air Force to stage a large number of deployments, carried out by a substantially smaller force than existed in the 1980s. To meet these challenges and to address resulting personnel turbulence, the Air Force has formulated the expeditionary Aerospace Force concept. Prototype analyses in this report suggest that with today’s support processes, ploicies, and technologies, deploying even a modest fighter-based combat force to a bare base will require several days of

Dirty Work profiles a number of occupations that society deems tainted. The volume vivid, ethnographic reports focuses on the communication that helps workers manage the moral, social, and physical stains that derive from engaging in such occupations. The creative ways that those who perform such dirty work learn to communicate--and with outsiders-- regulates the negative aspects of the work itself and emphases the positives so that workers can maintain a sense of self-value even while performing devalued occupations.
