Book excerpt: This work examines spoken language as a field of study, looking at the various ways in which we can both theorize the place of talk in education, and examine the way talk is actually done in educational settings.

It is relevant to teachers at primary, secondary and tertiary levels and for researchers interested in spoken language in educational contexts.
