This book defines the notion of applied sign linguistics by drawing on data from projects that have explored sign language in action in various domains. The book gives professionals working with sign languages, signed language teachers and students, research students and their supervisors, authoritative access to current ideas and practice.
“Sign Language in Action is a strong overview of applied sign language linguistics. Both Napier and Leeson are able to explain the broad field in a manner that is approachable for newcomers. Instructors and researchers of applied sign language may want to consider Napier and Leeson’s book a delightful addition to the panoply of educational materials about sign languages and applied linguistics, especially for introductory courses in sign language related fields, such as linguistics or deaf education.” (Jon Henner, Journal of Deaf Studies and Deaf Education, Vol. 21 (4), October, 2016)
