Just about everyone seems to have views about language. Language attitudes and language ideologies permeate our daily lives. Our competence, intelligence, friendliness, trustworthiness, social status, group memberships, and so on, are often judged from the way we communicate. Even the speed at which we speak can evoke reactions. And we often try to anticipate such judgements as we communicate. In this lively introduction, Peter Garrett draws upon research carried out over recent decades in order to discuss such attitudes and the implications they have for our use of language, for social advantage or discrimination, and for social identity. Using a range of examples that includes punctuation, words, grammar, pronunciation, accents, dialects and languages, this book explores the intricate and fascinating ways in which language influences our everyday thoughts, feelings and behaviour.

"Making It Count" is a must-read for social researchers looking to reform empirical research to contribute to society's rigorous understanding. Stanley Lieberson undertakes the daunting task of reexamining the model of empirical research and mold it into an activity that contributes as much as possible to a rigorous understanding of society. He redefines some undoable questions previously studied, categorizes them into four types, and suggests successful empirical alternatives while keeping in mind the doctrine of the undoable. The book's most distinctive feature is how Lieberson reconceptualizes research to achieve a more accurate articulation of social phenomena.
