It provides an excellent (and long overdue) discussion of terminology, American lingustic anthropology's development within Cultural Anthropology, its subsequent drift away from anthropology towards an independent discipline increasingly focused on theoretical anthropologists in the late 1960s, and its reestablishment as a subfield of anthropology in the 1980s-90s. As a textbook this reader makes a very useful teaching aid, as a source book it provides valuable insights into the discipline of linguistic anthropology.\" (\u003ci\u003eLinguist List\u003c\/i\u003e)\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eTable of Contents\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003eAcknowledgments to the Second Edition.  \u003cp\u003ePreface to the Second Edition.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eLinguistic Anthropology: History, Ideas, and Issues (Alessandro Duranti).\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003ePart I: Ideal and Real Speech Communities.\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eIntroduction.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e1 The Speech Community (John J.
