This is a timely collection of chapters by well-known scholars, in which an innovative research agenda and approach to applied linguistics are proposed, emphasizing its multidisciplinary character. I believe it is essential reading for all who are interested in the most recent developments in understanding what applied linguistics is and where it is going. Danuta Gabrys-Barker, University of Silesia, Poland This eclectic volume offers valuable insights on a range of applied linguistic issues, with a strong focus on research methodologies, including psychological, neurolinguistic, and dynamic systems modelling. It is refreshingly multinational, and presents studies on several less-researched languages. Directions for future research are highlighted on topics ranging from age to language policy, with a strong section on bilingualism. Norbert Schmitt, University of Nottingham, UK It's hard to predict the future in any domain but the contributors in the present volume are well placed to help shape research in applied linguistics, which makes their analyses, predictions and suggestions a rich source of inspiration for researchers around the world. Jean-Marc Dewaele, Birkbeck, University of London, UK
