Recenzii

"This volume achieves unprecedented levels of coherence, epistemological complementarity, and currency in the exploration of communicative competence. It offers a vibrant tour de force through theories, methods, and diverse spheres of application. A must read for all interested in understanding this construct at the heart of the field of second language acquisition!"
Lourdes Ortega, Georgetown University, USA
"The notion of communicative competence is so deeply entrenched in our collective understanding of L2 development. Yet many of us, if prompted on the topic, might respond like the fish that asks "What is water?". Flounder no longer! Kanwit and Solon bring together in this volume works by a world-class cast of contributors that deftly address the theory-methods-practice trifecta as it pertains to communicative competence. The editors’ and authors’ various takes on this topic are as refreshing as they are informed, as current as they are diverse in perspective."
Luke Plonsky, Northern Arizona University, USA
"This engaging, original, scholarly, and insightful book updates the concept of communicative competence, clarifying and deepening the definition, description, and analysis of this crucial concept in second language acquisition. It covers a multiplicity of aspects of the area and deftly and authoritatively presents theories, methodologies, and applications. This is a significant contribution to the field, and a must read for both established scholars and those new to the field, with contributions from distinguished researchers from a wide variety of research areas."
Vera Regan, University College Dublin, Ireland
