DEBORAH TANNEN

10/07/2009 7:00 pm

Ever since her book, You Just Don't Understand: Men and Women in Conversation, came out nearly twenty years ago, and had a term of office tenure (four years) place on the New York Times bestseller list, Georgetown University professor Deborah Tannen has had readers' attention when it's come to other books on communication. Her 1986 book, That's Not What I Meant, and then her other books—Talking from 9 to 5, The Argument Culture, I Only Say This Because I Love You, and You're Wearing THAT?—have all been critically and commercially well-received. She follows You're Wearing THAT?—a book on communication between mothers and daughters with a perceptive new one, You Were Always Mom's Favorite: Sisters in Conversation (Random House). Drawn from interviews with over one hundred women, research, and her own experience in having two sisters, Deborah Tannen casts revealing light and insight on one of the most central, enduring, and often perplexing relationships that exist.
