A strikingly original analysis of the rhetorical patterns underlying Western linguistic thought

Reviews

"Taylor has written a complex and provocative book about the centrality of questions about communication in modern linguistic theory and philosophy of language. He not only argues for the role that skepticism about communication has played in theorizing language and interpretation, but rightly notes the broader significance and currency of these issues in pervasive concerns about incommensurate worldviews and conceptual frameworks and doubts about our ability to understand other cultures or even other groups within our own culture... The book incorporates an enormous amount of scholarship." Janet Skupien, Journal of Communication "Mutual Misunderstanding juxtaposes and critiques eight central theories of language within an utterly new and enlightening framework - and manages to retain a highly lucid and readable format at the same time." Michael Macovski, Fordham University
