Reviews

... a wonderful contribution... a research monograph which manages to be empirically thorough, methodologically rigorous, and of practical and theoretical interest. (Monica Heller, International Journal of Bilingualism)The importance of this book for sociolinguistics cannot be overestimated. (Claire Kramsch, Language and Education)
