SUMMARY OR ABSTRACT
Text of Note
"From patent miscommunication through potent ambiguity to pregnant silence, this collection examines from a rare anthropological perspective the many aspects of indirect communication. From a Mormon theme park to carnival time on Montserrat, the contributors analyze indirection by illustrating how food, silence, sunglasses, martial arts, and rudeness constitute powerful ways of conveying meaning."--Jacket.
