Book: Pragmatics Of Human Communication: A Study Of Interactional Patterns, Pathologies, And Paradoxes This book deals with the age-old questions of persistence and change in human affairs. More particularly, it is concerned with how problems arise and are perpetuated in some instances, and resolved in others. It examines how, paradoxically, common sense and logical approaches often fail and in doing so compound an existing problem, while seemingly 'illogical' and 'unreasonable' actions succeed in producing the desired change.
