Summary: A little too pragmatic.
Comment: I am currently using this book, along with Relevance by Sperber & Wilson, for a Linguistic Pragmatics course. The material is interesting but the manner in which it reads is not very engaging. That makes for a challenging time trying to grasp the points the author is trying to convey.
Rating: 5
Summary: Very readable introduction
Comment: I would highly recommend this very readable introduction to the pragmatic revolution in linguistics. The book is organized incredibly well with each chapter dealing with a curiously inexplicable lingusitic phenomenon that just happens to have a clean, pragmatic answer. Levinson weaves linguistic theory and philosophy of language well with a very readable format and style. I found it especially useful as a primer for recent philosophy of language.
