《汉英会话语篇对比研》编著者王望妮。 This book explores
the ways top leaders practice communication at public dialogues.
The theoretical foundations are made up of three different yet
complementary orientations to language and discourse:Conversation
Analysis CA, Critical Discourse Analysis CDA and Systemic
Functional Linguistics SFL. For better insights into pub-lic
dialogues, a combination method of both qualitative and
quantita-tive is adopted for this project.
