Reviews / Votes

The Russian Language in the Twentieth Century is a book that will appeal to a broad readership, since it adeptly addresses both scholarly and practical concerns. In addition to its obvious appeal for linguists, the update on current language usage will be of interest to both native and non-native speakers, Since the book addresses many questions that arise in language classes, it will also be a valuable reference for language teachers. * Susan C.
