Extract
Alan Davies & Catherine Elder (eds.), The handbook of applied linguistics. Malden, MA: Blackwell, 2004. Pp. viii, 866. Hb $139.95.
The Handbook of Applied Linguistics is the latest in the Blackwell Handbooks in Linguistics Series, which covers the major subdisciplines within linguistics. The previous 16 volumes have provided an extensive state-of-the-art overview of areas ranging from Child Language to Morphology, and from Contemporary Semantic Theory to Language and Gender. This latest volume collects 32 articles within the field of applied linguistics, adding to the list of recent major publications in applied linguistics (e.g., Cook 2003, Gass & Makoni 2004, Kaplan 2002, McCarthy 2001) that, with varying emphases, demonstrate the broad range of the discipline as well as indicating some of the different ways in which it can be conceptualized.
