analysis of a wide range of discursive devices on local and global aspects of discourse, from interpretative cues to suprasegmental features such as prosody. This volume also touches upon the interdisciplinary nature of studying language and cognition. Some basic cognitive notions such as causality, focus operators and subjectivity help us to realize discourse organization, information structure, processes of argumentative operations and to guide communicative and inferential processes to recover the speaker’s intention. Hence, it is a valuable academic resource for scholars and students who are interested in discourse analysis. As a minor limitation, I missed a summary of related issues or future research directions in the final section of each chapter, which could be a good guide to scholars, researchers and post-graduates who are interested in empirically-oriented studies in discourse and related disciplines.
