Book Synopsis
This book provides a wide-ranging treatment of the major issues in applied linguistics.

Trade Review
'It is clearly written, approachable in style, and particularly lucid where it needs to be. This is a book that will merit re-reading, and the 'issues' format is such that it could be dipped into when the reader wishes to tackle some aspects in more depth.' ELT Journal
