Recensioner i media

"In an extremely rapidly changing field of scholarship, this collection presents the best of an existing paradigm of research while heralding a new one. This volume should incite everyone to fundamental reflection and a ‘no holds barred’ attitude in fresh research." Jan Blommaert, Tilburg University, the Netherlands"The key role that language plays in how we are seen by others and how we see ourselves – struggles around identity – has emerged as a major focus of applied linguistics over the last 20 years. This new handbook does a wonderful job of pulling this work together – from its theoretical roots to its contemporary manifestations – into one diverse and readable volume." Alastair Pennycook, University of Technology Sydney, Australia
