About this book
Reviews
From the reviews:
“This book will be of great interest to researchers in GenSLA, language pedagogy and advanced students in linguistics. Second language teachers will also benefit, although the theoretical discussion may be somewhat advanced for those lacking a solid linguistic background. … It shows the need for research combining GenSLA and classroom teaching. It surely opens the field for interdisciplinary research in all areas of linguistics and all areas of language pedagogy.” (Alexandra Galani, The Linguist List, May, 2014)
