Books by Paul Ten Have

This work on conversational analysis includes coverage of topics like: two ways in which numbers are significant for talk-interaction; conversational laughter; telenegotiating as a social accomplishment; and "mm hm" tokens as interactional devices in psychotherapeutic in-take interviews.

Helps reader to introduce the conversation analysis (CA) as a specific research approach in the human sciences, and to provide students and novice researchers with methodological and practical suggestions for actually doing CA research.
