1.	[no image]	You Just Don't Understand from Books on Tape Customer Review: Although filled with a wonderful examination of human/gender behavior and communication, the preface and first chapter could easily supplement the remaining portion of the book. Tannen is extremely repetitive in her ideas and her research, often veering into tangents obviously relatable to the main... more info	Customer Rating: 4.0 / 5.0 Click here for more information


2.		You're Wearing That?: Understanding Mothers and Daughters in Conversation from Ballantine Books Price: $10.17 Customer Review: Another reviewer said it best when she asked if Tannen knew her and her daughter. I called my mother several times over the course of reading this book, laughing about conversations we've had IDENTICAL to those in this book. What I love about Tannen is that none of the information she delivers is... more info	Customer Rating: 4.0 / 5.0 Click here for more information


3.		That's Not What I Meant! from Ballantine Books Price: $11.16 Customer Review: That's Not What I Meant explores how to improve communication for both men and women in their personal and private lives. Topics covered include how and why people communicate differently, why misunderstanding occur and how to improve ones own communication style. Deborah Tannen is an... more info	Customer Rating: 4.0 / 5.0 Click here for more information


4.		Talking from 9 to 5: Women and Men at Work from Harper Paperbacks Price: $11.86 Customer Review: Book talks in perspective of Victorian Women.. tries hard to explain why 'She' talks the way she talks. Men are discussed too, but just as formal expression. Book is full of biased towards how and why women are hesitant one (and theory is expanded to men too). Not really focused on any... more info	Customer Rating: 3.5 / 5.0 Click here for more information


5.		I Only Say This Because I Love You: Talking to Your Parents, Partner, Sibs, and Kids When You're All Adults from Ballantine Books Price: $10.85 Customer Review: Everyone with a family should read this book. It has excellent examples and you will recognize the conversations and situations because you have heard or participated in very similar communication fiascoes.

6.		The Argument Culture: Stopping America's War of Words from Ballantine Books Price: $10.85 Customer Review: The book itself was used for a class project. I found the cultural perspective somewhat stilted. I think that the author could have been more culturally astute in her presentation of the differences between cultures when individuals within are in conflict. And she totally avoided the issue of racism... more info	Customer Rating: 3.5 / 5.0 Click here for more information


7.		I Only Say This Because I Love You: How the Way We Talk Can Make or Break Family Relationships Throughout Our Lives from Random House Customer Review: Chapter 1 of Tannen's latest book provides some fabulous new insights to relationships of all kinds. Her discussions of the connection-control schema and meta-messages concept allow the reader to gain new perspectives on those sometimes frustrating interactions with loved ones (or coworkers, or... more info	Customer Rating: 4.0 / 5.0 Click here for more information


8.		Different Games, Different Rules: Why Americans and Japanese Misunderstand Each Other from Oxford University Press, USA Price: $30.08 Customer Review: When you download a sample, you expect at least a little bit of the meat of the book so you can see if it's worth buying or not. In the case of this book, all you get is how the author uses people's names, and part of a pronounciation guide... useless.	Customer Rating: 4.0 / 5.0 Click here for more information


9.		The Power of Talk: Who Gets Heard and Why (HBR OnPoint Enhanced Edition) from Harvard Business Review Price: $6.50	Click here for more information


10.		The Handbook of Discourse Analysis (Blackwell Handbooks in Linguistics) from Wiley-Blackwell Price: $56.71	Click here for more information


11.		Conversational Style: Analyzing Talk among Friends from Oxford University Press, USA Price: $24.06 Customer Review: Deborah Tannen's book hit me with what should have been obvious years ago. During a recent conversation, a fellow student at the American University voiced some hesitation about applying for a master's degree in Sociology, because her undergraduate degree was in Music. Lacking a background in... more info	Customer Rating: 4.0 / 5.0 Click here for more information


12.		Framing in Discourse from Oxford University Press, USA Price: $60.00 Customer Review: This is not a book for the general public. In fact, it is not a book at all. It is a collection of papers written by Deborah Tannen and her students, most of which have not been published in peer-reviewed journals. If you have done a few years of graduate-school level study, you may be able to... more info	Customer Rating: 2.0 / 5.0 Click here for more information


13.		Talking Voices: Repetition, Dialogue, and Imagery in Conversational Discourse (Studies in Interactional Sociolinguistics) from Cambridge University Press Price: $22.49 Customer Review: Readers who expect gender-difference discussion will be disappointed; this book's topic is very different, though equally important. Tannen shows that repetition of key pieces of a speaker's utterance are useful in a variety of ways: they maintain a topic, allow turn-taking which supports the... more info	Customer Rating: 4.0 / 5.0 Click here for more information

15.		The Modern Scholar: He Said/She Said: Women, Men and Language from audible.com Price: $37.46 Customer Review: Deborah Tannen's course is great, you don't even realize you are listening to college style lectures. Ms. Tannen brings the subject to life, I highly recommend any of her books or CD's.	Customer Rating: 5.0 / 5.0 Click here for more information


16.		Gender and Discourse from Oxford University Press, USA Price: $17.99 Customer Review: Dr. Tannen is a brilliant author and the "go to" researcher on matters concerning gender differences in communication. This book is research-based and a more difficult read when compared to her more popular books. I read this book cover to cover in graduate school and I recommend it highly for any... more info	Customer Rating: 4.5 / 5.0 Click here for more information

18.		Gender and Conversational Interaction (Oxford Studies in Sociolinguistics) from Oxford University Press, USA Price: $60.00 Customer Review: Again, this was a book I had to read for a class. I did not choose to read it... I would say that people need to worry more about the quality of their work than what people are going to think about it in the long run. The way people speak when referring to genders does not necessarily reflect the... more info	Customer Rating: 1.0 / 5.0 Click here for more information
