Book Description:

In this challenging volume, Steve Duck argues that relationships continually unfold and are in need of perpetual responsive action and construction. Central to the discussion is the author′s contention that relationships are solidly based in the recognition of shared meaning, which is discovered in the way we metaphorically represent the world to ourselves and to others through everyday talk and symbols.
