'This work significantly contributes to research intersections on discourse and communication. [...] This book's main contribution is to demonstrate that DT is employed in communication studies not from lack of attention but for its practicability, which represents a strong, systematic interpretation of communication practices. The authors fill methodological gaps with their analyses by explaining how the interpretative mechanisms underlying DT are operationalized. [...] The work further contributes by translating DT into a DTA methodology.' -- Xin Zhang and Yiming Chen, International Journal of CommunicationMore details
