Reviews

In 14 contributions, 30 seasoned and novice researchers of linguistics and L2 learning and teaching pay tribute to Marjolijn Verspoor's scholarship. The umbrella provided by the Dynamic Usage-Based (DUB) account of L2 acquisition appears to be much wider than I had thought. DUB clearly is alive (and kicking). Warmly recommended. * Jan Hulstijn, University of Amsterdam, The Netherlands * This volume effectively illustrates how Complex Dynamic Systems Theory (CDST) helps us construct an empirically grounded, ecologically realistic understanding of second language learning, with each chapter exploring a different dimension of the approach. Together, these studies provide us with a real feast of ideas and data, all in support of this new perspective. * Brian MacWhinney, Carnegie Mellon University, USA *
