Rezensionen / Stimmen
"In conclusion, this volume merits praise for having compiled many excellent chapters--representing both traditional and newer research trends in Hispanic sociolinguistics--by its thirty-five authors ... As it is, it should be recommended for purchase by our university libraries as a reference book." ( Project Muse , 23 April 2013) "The volume presents a clear explanation of the history of the field, recent advancements, and future directions for the field of Hispanic sociolinguistics that are relevant and accessible to anyone with an interest in the topic. The compilation is a "must-have" for the bookshelf of any modern sociolinguist, and it is a resource that will help raise questions and shape debates in the field for years to come." ( Linguist , 4 August 2012) "The book is a really impressive collection of key issues in today's sociolinguistics. It presents the most researched areas of the field in a comprehensive way and thereby reflects the rich diversity of dialects and varieties spoken across the Americas and Spain. It should certainly be compulsory reading for anyone interested in sociolinguistics." (ELanguage, 2011)
