Reviewed with Apects of Teaching Secondary Modern Foreign Languages Edited by Ann Swarbrick'These two volumes represent state-of-the-art thinking.''It provides an impressively researched critique of current versions of communicative language teaching and a fascinating snapshot of development in "content and language integrated learning" from six European countries. - Nigel Norman, Teacher, TES'The book, as a whole, may be of interest to researchers who will find MLAC to be a surprisingly unresearched area whose processes and outcomes need to be empirically addressed The present volume is also a necessary reference point for anyone involved in language education in Europe. The array of schools that are presently engaged in MLAC, as shown in the national case studies section, is impressive, and this seems to indicate that this instructional mode can only grow in importance in the near future.' - Elsa Tragant, Language Teaching Research
