Recenzii
'Ng and Wigglesworth offer a timely, lucid and painstakingly researched discussion of findings, pseudo-findings, insight, breakthrough and prejudice in past and current academic literature on bilingualism. Written in a crisp, engaging style, and complete with activities, study scenarios and plenty of food for thought, this book will deservedly become an obligatory reference for parents, teachers, students, school authorities and language curriculum planners faced with issues of multilingual language uses.' -Madalena Cruz-Ferreira, National University of Singapore
'Overall, in my opinion, this is the most accessible and useful introductory book
on bilingualism since François Grosjean's (1982) classic. It is sure to
stimulate the most apathetic undergraduate and fire up the imagination of the
most exhausted graduate student.' - Alicia Pousada, Linguist
'In conclusion, this book is an excellent resource for both stimulating research and teaching on bilingualism and second language acquisition. It has both strong research and pedagogical merits and its adaptable format allows it to be used in courses of various levels, though it will be most suitable for postgraduate courses where students have to be oriented towards research. I also see the book as being a valuable companion to applied linguists, speech pathologists and language teachers who are working and researching in bi-/multilingual contexts.' - Dr Vicenza Tudini, International Journal of Bilingualism
'In all, this work is an important publication. Bilingual students and researchers
would benefi t from this book, especially those interested in more pedagogical and
sociolinguistic issues. In comparison to the handful of recently published books in
bilingualism (e.g., Altarriba & Heredia, 2008 ; Li, 2009 ; Li & Moyer, 2008 ; Myers-Scotton, 2006 ), this work is defi nitely one of the top fi ve. In short, this book is highly recommended, particularly for cognitive psychologists and psycholinguists who are not very well acquainted with the area of bilingualism as seen and studied by L2 researchers, educators, and applied linguists. Finally, any class in bilingualism or the psychology of bilingualism must include this book. It is a well-written book from which advanced undergraduate and graduate students would greatly benefit.' - Roberto Heredia, Studies in Second Language Acquistion
"...this is the most accessible and useful introductory book on bilingualism since François Grosjean's (1982) classic. It is sure to stimulate the most apathetic undergraduate and fire up the imagination of the most exhausted graduate student. I plan on using it myself the next time I offer my Master's level course on Bilingualism" -- Alicia Pousada, Linguist List, June 2008
