{"product_id":"the-language-of-business-meetings-9780521133432","title":"The Language of Business Meetings","description":"This innovative volume presents an in-depth study of the language used by participants in business meetings. The cutting-edge research draws on the Cambridge and Nottingham Business English Corpus (CANBEC), a unique resource which brings together meetings of different types both within and between companies, involving speakers whose roles and responsibilities vary, and who represent a range of nationalities and first languages. Keywords, concordance lines and discourse analysis provide thorough insights into aspects such as the structural stages of meetings, participants' discursive practices, interpersonal language and creativity, and power and constraint. The author concludes by making practical suggestions for using these findings to inform the teaching of business English.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Michael Handford\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Cambridge University Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 08\/19\/2010\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 286\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding Type:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.02lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.92h x 6.10w x 0.66d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780521133432","brand":"Cambridge University Press","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":44411334230131,"sku":"9780521133432","price":74.95,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0555\/9255\/0515\/files\/img_6d5333c2-4a2d-4baf-bd11-300824bd15c8.jpg?v=1772025778","url":"https:\/\/bookstorenmore.com\/en-de\/products\/the-language-of-business-meetings-9780521133432","provider":"Bookstore N More","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
