In this latest volume of the Sociolinguistics in Deaf Communities Series, Winston has includednot only discourse analysis of American Sign Language (ASL) but also of sign languages native toBali, Italy, and England. She offers a fascinating look at the “intricate discourse patternsthat have evolved in different languages” (p. ix). Her work should be required reading forall teachers of sign language as well as teachers of interpreters. This book will also appeal tosociolinguists; language use in the community is clearly the overriding theme.
