Recenzii

"Well written and admirably organized, this work is a milestone in the study of Bosnian, Croatian, and Serbian. It is the first unified description of BCS since the break-up of former Yugoslavia and includes Professor Alexander's vitally important sociolinguistic commentary."—Victor A. Friedman, University of Chicago
“An invaluable volume, both for the early twenty-first century and for the emerging situation within the former Yugoslavia. Such works cannot but help ease the wounds inflicted and suffered over the last decades.”—Forum for Modern Language Studies

“Comprehensive. . . . Could be profitably used by everyone from beginners to the most advanced learners.”—Keith Langston, Slavic and East European Journal
