Praise for the first edition
'The book's greatest strength is its accessibility. Language and tables are extremely clear, and Stockwell's writing style is comfortable, conversational and nonthreatening ... [he] displays a sense of humour that helps move the learning process along.' - Journal of Multilingual & Multicutural Development
