Hardcover. This collection of readings is complementary to "Introduction to Integrational Linguistics" (Language & Communication Library, Vol.17), but can be used independently. It brings together 24 key papers in integrational linguistics, and is intended to serve as a basic reading list for students and others making the first acquaintance with the subject. Originally published in sources that are for the most part out of print, these papers have been revised and updated by their authors where necessary. They are arranged in six sections: (1) Language and Communication, (2) Language and the Language Myth, (3) Language and Meaning, (4) Language and Discourse, (5) Language and Writing, and (6) Language and Society. An editorial introduction discusses the individual contributions and their relevance to integrationist theory. Bringing together 24 key papers in integrational linguistics, this book is intended to serve as a basic reading list for students and others making the first acquaintance with the subject. It includes sections such as: Language and Communication, Language and the Language Myth, Language and Meaning, Language and Discourse, and more. This item is printed on demand.

Review
There is certainly a need for a publication of books on integrational linguistics intended essentially for teaching purposes. I would recommend these books for all the courses that I teach.
Vincente Lopez Folgado
Product of the alluvium of different theories and models, epistemological inheritor of models ranging from early structuralism to the currently flourishing cognitivism, with a spirit that is eclectic and at the same time critical, integrationism collects the most profitable elements from all the [linguistic] theories that have pretended to the throne ... In short, a good anthological bundle of articles with a very different tone from what we are used to reading, a veritable breath of fresh air into [a discipline - linguistics - ] that is excessively straitjacketed by principles and rules of all shapes and sizes.
Alfinge: Revista de Filologia
Tony Bex, University of Kent
... integrationalism has emerged as a thriving school throwing up significant challenges to orthodox linguistics. The appearance of [this volume] is to be welcomed ... These chapters are particularly interesting precisely because they resituate the study of language in the circumstances of occurrence, and therefore give a distinct flavour of integrationalism in practice. More work like this will advance the integrationalist programme and force mainstream linguists to reconsider their own preoccupations.
