Essential reading for graduate students and researchers in linguistic anthropology, sociolinguistics and applied linguistics.Le 1er chapitre indique : "The study of speech communities is central to the understanding of human language and meaning. Speech communities are groups that share values and attitudes about language use, varieties and practices. These communities develop through prolonged interaction among those who operate within these shared and recognized beliefs and value systems regarding forms and styles of communication"
