Reviews

One of the qualities of the volume, in addition to the extensive bibliographies that accompany each Chapter, is the generally thorough and clear exposition of the research questions, theoretical framework, and previous work that relate to each topic. Thus, the volume should be of interest not only to SLA researchers but also to practitioners in French language education and to those who teach research methods.Betsy Kerr, University of Minnesota-Twin Cities, in Studies in Second Language Acquisition 29:1Dewaele succeeds in creating a collection that unites approaches that are often divergent. Impressively, the volume remains cohesive, and this cohesiveness is largely due to another feature of the collection that highlights it multidisciplinary goal.Amanda C. Edmonds, Indiana University, in the French Review Vol 79: 5.Focus on French as a Foreign Language greatly contributes to our knowledge of student mastery of the various components of French at early and advanced stages of their learning. Both foreign language teachers and second language acquisition research can profit from the abundant data on the interlanguage (s) of students of French.Kenneth H. Rogers, University of Rhode Island, in the Modern Language Journal 9 1.1 (2007)This well-written, detailed, and diverse collection of articles draws strength from the varied backgrounds and perspectives of its contributing authors. A definite must read!Katherine Rehner, Ontario Institute for Studies in Education, University of Toronto in the Canadian Modern Language Review 62:3, March 2006
