Christiane Maaß Book order

Focusing on accessible communication, this book explores the design of Easy Language and Plain Language as tools for inclusion. It analyzes their complementary qualities—comprehensibility, perceptibility, acceptability, and stigmatisation potential—while discussing their linguistic, sociological, and legal contexts. The text addresses the current legal frameworks, user demographics, and stakeholders involved in creating these languages. Additionally, it introduces a new variant, Easy Language Plus, which aims to balance the four qualities to enhance acceptability and reduce stigma.
