Recenzii
"A highly practical and readable "how to" guide written by expert researchers, filled to the brim with helpful tips … valuable both as a textbook and as a field handbook."
James N. Stanford, Dartmouth College, USA
"These highly experienced researchers walk the budding sociolinguist through the essential stages in data collection and analysis in a no-nonsense yet highly engaging manner."
Jennifer Smith, Glasgow University, UK
"It's hard to think of another book that takes the reader so quickly and effortlessly into the heart of the field of sociolinguistic research."
Nick Evans, Australian National University
"Doing Sociolinguistics is a highly practical and readable "how to" guide written by expert researchers who know what they are doing when they do sociolinguistics. The book is filled to the brim with helpful tips and exactly the right kinds of information needed for successful data collection and analysis in the quantitative or variationist paradigm. The authors have carefully organized their advice into easy-to-follow sections with clear examples, step-by-step guidelines, case studies, exercises, practical statistics, and helpful suggestions for further reading, making the book valuable both as a textbook and as a field handbook."
James N. Stanford, Dartmouth College, USA
"Doing Sociolinguistics is a perfectly pitched title for a perfectly planned book by three perfectly placed sociolinguists. These highly experienced researchers walk the budding sociolinguistic through the essential stages in data collection and analysis in a no-nonsense yet highly engaging manner, pinpointing the key questions along the way: how much data do I need? why would I want to use a corpus? what should a graph do? In doing so, the book manages to provide a fully comprehensive ‘how to’ guide but yet in a highly accessible, ‘clear and casual' way. A most welcome addition to methods in sociolinguistic research."
Jennifer Smith, Glasgow University, UK
"This genially written and deceptively chatty guide leads the reader through the whole trajectory of sociolinguistic research, from conceiving the questions through data gathering, and on through statistical analysis and graphic presentation of results to sound design on writing up a research article. It's hard to think of another book that takes the reader so quickly and effortlessly into the heart of the field."
