Exploring Intercultural Communication investigates the role of language in intercultural communication, paying particular attention to the interplay between cultural diversity and language practice.

This second edition increases and updates the coverage on emerging key topics, including symbolic power, communicative turbulence, conversational inequality, stereotypes, racism, Nationality and Ethnicity talk and the impact and role of technology in intercultural communication. Including global examples from a range of genres, this book is an indispensable resource for students taking language and intercultural communication modules within applied linguistics, TESOL, education or communication studies courses.

Industry Reviews

'This book provides a lucid introduction to the field of intercultural communication which has grown steadily over the past decade. As in the earlier edition, key domains (e.g. classroom, workplace, business, family) are covered with engaging real world case studies and practical exercises. The second edition provides additional and interesting new material and new perspectives, such as the concept of "turbulence" in intercultural communication, as well as updated references, accurately reflecting recent advances in the field.'
Janet Holmes, Victoria University of Wellington, New Zealand

'This revised, expanded and updated edition of Zhu Hua's popular textbook has become even more attractive in its detailed coverage of key practical and theoretical issues in intercultural communication studies. Varied topics, lively style and useful activities will appeal to students around the world.'
Adam Jaworski, The University of Hong Kong, Hong Kong
