Written in an accessible manner that does not assume previous knowledge of linguistics, this new edition contains expanded discussions on linguistic anthropology, sociolinguistics (including an expanded section on trans and nonbinary language), and pragmatics. The textbook incorporates a robust set of pedagogical features, including marginal definitions, a substantial glossary, chapter summaries, and learning exercises. Brand new to this edition are a full International Phonetic Alphabet chart, new exercises with languages other than English, and new illustrations.
Bruce M. Rowe is a professor emeritus of anthropology at Los Angeles Pierce College, USA, where he has taught since 1970.

He has also written 4 children’s books on different groups of animals. He has received numerous awards for teaching. He has been a fellow of the American Anthropological Association, a member of the American Association of Physical Anthropologists, the Society for Anthropology in Community Colleges, and the Linguistic Society of America.
