Social
Interaction Division of the National Communication Association and

*Marat Shangxin Zheng, Language and Dialogue*
CA is naturally developing, growing, changing, but the work of
Anita Pomerantz is as good a reminder as any of the core historical
strengths of CA, its rigour, its empirical focus, its concern with
what happens in conversation in the here-and-now. These are
contributions that every budding scholar of CA should read.
