  Taking a multidisciplinary and interdisciplinary approach, 
  Discourse and digital practices addresses the central issue of how traditional analytical tools developed from discourse analysis can be used to analyze new communication practices associated with digital media. It also shows the way discourse analysts are challenged in analyzing digital practices by adapting traditional analytical approaches and developing new theories and methodologies. The book stands out as a cutting-edge book in digital discourse studies with its wide range of digital practices from video gaming, “curation”, tagging, social networking to apps, and its in-depth discussion of the current key topics like “discourse and identities in the digital world”, “digital discourse and education”, and “digital practices and power relations”. It provides deep insights and will be of great value for those working in the fields of discourse analysis, media studies, multimodality and digital literacy studies.
