During the past decade, it has become commonplace to interpret social and cultural reality-the very groundwork of the social sciences-as linguistic constructions. Not only is society viewed as a text, but scientific texts themselves are seen as rhetorical constructions.
This collection of scholarly essays begins with an overview of this emerging field, and covers the specific stylistic practices by which social scientists create "objective" or "true" representations of society. The volume closes with a consideration of the more telling challenges to the rhetorics of the social sciences and how these might be encompassed or overcome.

reviewed Writing the Social Text: Poetics and Politics in Social Science Discourse on March 02, 2014
Writing the Social Text
Paltridge provides a very clear overview of various modes of discourse analysis. There are lots of jumping off points into the literature, and practical exercises to show how to apply the various theories and methods. In my Discourse Analysis class we had to leave Paltridge to look at Ethnography of Communication, which perhaps was a gap of some kind.
