Book Synopsis Secret Manipulations by : Anne Storch
Book excerpt: This book addresses a specific form of language change: deliberate manipulations of a language by its speakers. These manipulations are based and depend on cultural and social contexts; they are often considered to be secret and are at the same time expressions of difference and power.
