Reviews

This volume is a wonderful collection that will prove to be a valuable resource for many researchers and students. Most people tend to think of the study of second language (L2) phonology as a narrow, specialized field. This anthology clearly demonstrates the range of issues that must be addressed to fully explore the question of how people learn the sound system of a L2. [...] Each of these chapters is comprehensive and accessible. Taken together, they provide a snapshot of the state of the art in L2 phonology research. The list of references alone would have been a valuable contribution to the field, but the thoughtful commentaries provided throughout this volume make it a must-have for libraries, professors, and students. -- John Archibald, University of Calgary, in Studies in Second Language Acquisition, 33(1): 127-128
