Candice Barber
reviewed The New Psychology of Language: Cognitive and Functional Approaches to Language Structure, Vol. 2 on June 24, 2011 The New Psychology of Language
Sensible overview of topics in sociolinguistics, with an enjoyable account of prescriptivism and the "complaint tradition". Bonus: Chapter 2 alerted me to an absurdly cranky essay on malapropisms (broadly understood) by Kingsley Amis ("Getting It Wrong", 1980) that compares "floating hopefully" to Japanese cars as "the most widely and loudly denounced import to the U.K.", and suggests adding the following usage label to the dictionary to supplement joc. (jocular) and vulg. (vulgar): "illit. (illiterate)" (33).
