Books by Martin Montgomery

Drawing principally on linguistics, but multidisciplinary in its scope, this book demonstrates that news programmes are as much about showing as telling, as much about ordinary bystanders as about experts, and as much about personal testimony as calling politicians to account. It is suitable for anyone researching the news.

Explores the key connections between language and social life. This book presents a comprehensive introduction to the function of language in modern society. It is suitable for students and teachers of Communication Studies and Language Studies.
