“Perspectives on Good Writing in Applied Linguistics and TESOL does justice to its title given the kaleidoscope of perspectives contributed by a stellar lineup of writing teachers and scholars. They offer diverse perspectives on factors shaping beliefs and values about what good writing is, including social, cultural, and institutional expectations; disciplinary socialization; and reflexivity on one’s own practices. The kaleidoscope of perspectives is also evident in their reflections on writing itself (covering established as well as new digital genres, writing by transnational writers, and translingual literacy practices), and on teaching, assessing, and responding to writing. The book represents true advances in current understandings of what good writing is, and should be a staple on every shelf.”
