Reviews / Votes
"This is a terrific and unprecedented resource that surveys the vibrant field of Spanish SLA from a wealth of angles. All contributors are authorities who have succeeded admirably in synthesizing accumulated findings and in offering forward-looking suggestions - across theories, foci of inquiry, methodologies, contexts, and fundamental questions. At once indispensable for scholars working on the acquisition of Spanish and poignantly relevant for the entire SLA research community!" --Lourdes Ortega, Georgetown University "The publication of the Handbook of Spanish Second Language Acquisition marks the coming of age of both SLA and Spanish SLA. With contributions by well-known SLA scholars, the Handbook both consolidates cumulative research in L2 Spanish and suggests directions for future investigations. It is a valuable resource for anyone in the field." --Kathleen Bardovi-Harlig, Indiana UniversityMore details
