Humans are imperfect, and problems of speaking, hearing and understanding are pervasive in ordinary interaction. This book examines the way we 'repair' and correct such problems. The first book-length study of this topic, it brings together a team of scholars from the fields of anthropology, communication, linguistics and sociology.
