The Cambridge Scholars Publishing Applied Linguistics Collection

"This is an excellent and valuable collection for all students, undergraduate and postgraduate, researchers, scholars (Book 4), and language practitioners in the field of Applied Linguistics (Books 9 and 13), since it covers a comprehensive range of topics which surely provides for diverse interests. The vast range of topics in this collection will also be of special interest to teachers and educators who are involved with language education, especially second and foreign language teaching (Books 1, 3, 4, 6). This collection will be equally valuable to translators, proofreaders, reviewers and editors who are interested in discourse analysis and academic writing and who are working with the research publication process (Book 2). Book 5 will be appreciated by researchers and students who are interested in the areas of sociolinguistics, sociology, gender and women’s studies and education. Students and scholars interested in specific areas of Applied Linguistics, such as sociolinguistics, psycholinguistics, bilingual and multicultural education, second and foreign language education, lexicography and translation, will find Books 7, 8, 11 and 12 very insightful. Those who are working in the area of intercultural communication, will be interested in Book 10. Books 13, 14 and 15 will benefit those working with English as a lingua franca, and also reading, writing and visual literacy in a L2."
