Wai Lan Tsang's approach strikes a balance between theoretical rigour and empirical evidence and furthers our understanding of crosslinguistic influence in the grammars of multilingual speakers. Ianthi Maria Tsimpli, University of Cambridge, UK This highly original volume breaks new ground in the study of the interaction between languages in the multilingual speaker's repertoire. It is an outstanding contribution to the study of grammar in third language acquisition and multilingualism because of the illuminating insights obtained from the combination of three languages, Cantonese, English and French.
