Recenzii

'[The authors] have been extremely successful in giving us the tools, the practices and methods for compiling working corpora to develop this new field of enquiry in the sociolinguistics of tourism. Developing a new critical methodology to examine the discourses that often remained unquestioned in a strictly business studies approach to tourism and hospitality is sufficient justification and recommendation for their innovative work.' - Charlie Mansfield, Journal of Tourism Consumption and Practice
'...the study should prove relevant to scholars interested in the topics of language, representation, international communication and social mobility in a variety of contexts...Thurlow and Jaworski are indubitably developing a very promising research programme. Indeed Tourism Discourse will prove a welcome addition to the scholarly conversation.' - Raymond Oenbring, Discourse & Society
