Reviews / Votes
The most profound and authoritative reference source in the field. Nowhere else can one find to the same degree such a comprehensive and thought provoking presentation of all the major concepts and approaches pertaining to the field... The volume is an absolute must-read for any student and researcher in the field of bi-/multilingualism and the adjacent spheres of language contact, language and globalization, second language acquisition, cross-cultural communication, world Englishes, and others.
