Glossary and Further Resources for CDS MethodologyReviewsA harmonious blend of theory and method, Hiver and Al-Hoorie provide researchers in applied linguistics not only with a rationale but the tools to fully (and finally!) embrace CDST. I expect this book will become a landmark publication for the field. * Luke Plonsky, Northern Arizona University, USA * This book offers both a timely and comprehensive guide to doing empirical research on Complex Dynamic Systems Theory in applied linguistics. A rarity for its breadth and depth, it presents a rich array of methodological options pooled from multiple disciplines of study, promoting and enabling integration of methods beyond mixing. * ZhaoHong Han, Teachers College, Columbia University, USA * This book is an eye-opening and completely welcome introduction to a methodological world much wider than most applied linguists will have ever imagined existed. Rather than a how-to book, it is a guide to a plethora of methodological approaches that aim to send `one-shot cross-sectional research' to its timely demise. In this book, readers will find an intriguing new approach for analyzing their data. * Jenifer Larson-Hall, University of Kitakyushu, Japan * A harmonious blend of theory and method, Hiver and Al-Hoorie provide researchers in applied linguistics not only with a rationale but the tools to fully (and finally!) embrace CDST.
