CONSCIOUSNESS AND SECONDLANGUAGE LEARNINGJohn Truscott

This is a masterly and enlightening treatment of

the challenging topic that is consciousness. It is

informed by cutting-edge research from within

cognitive science which is then applied, in clear

and concise terms, to the vexed but vital

question of how conscious processes might

influence the acquisition and use of second

languages. Highly recommended.

MIKE SHARWOOD SMITH, ACADEMY OF SOCIAL SCIENCES, WARSAW, POLAND

The book offers a novel view of consciousness and its place insecond language learning, using the established cognitiveframework, MOGUL. It also provides an extensive review of theoriesof consciousness and related cognitive theory and research, placingthat work in the context of second language learning.

MULTIPLE PERSPECTIVES ON THE SELF IN SLAEdited by Sarah Mercer and Marion Williams

The history of 'self' in studies of second language

identities is a somewhat uneven one and what

has always been missing is the big view - not a

single monolithic account of this area of

research, but a collection of the variety of ways

there are to go about it. In this timely book, the

editors bring together prominent scholars who

provide the reader with a wide range of angles on the construct

(from self-efficacy to self-esteem) and offer a stimulating

snapshot of the state of play as regards self in second language

identities research.

THE LANGUAGE OF ADULT IMMIGRANTSAgency in the MakingElizabeth R. Miller

Elizabeth Miller's innovative focus on how the

use of grammatical resources in interaction

opens up a space for the construction and

negotiating of agency in interview talk offers a

fresh perspective for understanding the

language learning experiences of adult immigrants to the United

States – and a powerful tool for problematizing the old dichotomy

between structure and agency.

JOSEPH SUNG-YUL PARK, NATIONAL UNIVERSITY OF SINGAPORE, SINGAPORE

This work explores how immigrant small business owners co-construct their theories of agency, in relation to language learningand use. It is the first to explore the constitution of language learneragency by drawing on performativity theory, an approach thatremains on the periphery of second language research. In doing so,it builds on the work of Vygotsky and Bakhtin along with researchon 'agency of spaces' and language ideologies.

LANGUAGE EDUCATION

THE BILINGUAL ADVANTAGELanguage, Literacy and the US Labor MarketEdited by Rebecca M. Callahan and Patricia C. Gándara

Finally! Educators have been asking for this

work for so long. There is no more timely issue

for teachers, parents and policy-makers today

than what research says about creating a

system that fosters bilingualism among all

students. After decades of politicized and polarized debates on

English Only, it's time to have a thoughtful discussion of the

enriching advantages of dual language acquisition as a basic part

of public education.

LILY ESKELSEN GARCÍA, PRESIDENT, NATIONAL EDUCATION ASSOCIATION, USA

Using novel methodological approaches and new data, TheBilingual Advantage draws together researchers from education,economics, sociology, anthropology and linguistics to examine theeconomic and employment benefits of bilingualism in the US labormarket, countering past research that shows no such benefits exist.

LANGUAGE POLICIES AND (DIS)CITIZENSHIPRights, Access, PedagogiesEdited by Vaidehi Ramanathan

In this thought-provoking volume, Vaidehi

Ramanathan and colleagues push forward the

boundaries of research on language and

citizenship, foregrounding human agency and

the situated and processual nature of

citizenship. The volume opens with a beautifully written, agenda-

setting Introduction by Ramanathan and then, in the chapters that

follow, we encounter detailed and illuminating accounts of the

ways in which language practices are bound up with situated

citizenship processes at work in different social and political

contexts.

MARILYN MARTIN-JONES, UNIVERSITY OF BIRMINGHAM, UK

This volume explores the concept of 'citizenship', and argues that itshould be understood as the ability to participate fully, rather thanas a status that can be inherited, acquired, or achieved. The authorsuse local contexts to foreground how the vulnerable, particularlythose from minority language backgrounds, continue to beexcluded, whilst offering a powerful demonstration of the potentialfor change offered by individual agency.

dialogue and interculturality through 'discursive faultlines'. This

important book is also timely, given current field interest in

identity pedagogies and the inner world of language teachers as a

key dimension of professional development.

ETHNOGRAPHY,SUPERDIVERSITY ANDLINGUISTIC LANDSCAPESChronicles of ComplexityJan Blommaert

Jan Blommaert offers a sweeping tour of the

complex geographies of contemporary

sociolinguistics. Effortlessly combining

erudition with accessibility, he maps a new

terrain for linguistic landscapes through the deeper contours of

ethnography; all of which is grounded in the intimate, culturally

diverse histories of his own backyard. This, argues Blommaert, is

how sociolinguists should be looking to untether themselves from

the stability and predictability of synchronic analysis and seeking

instead to live (and research) in the moment.

CRISPIN THURLOW, UNIVERSITY OF WASHINGTON, USA

Superdiversity has rendered familiar places, groups and practicesextraordinarily complex, and the traditional tools of analysis needrethinking. In this book, Jan Blommaert investigates his ownneighbourhood in Antwerp, Belgium, from a complexityperspective. Using an innovative approach to linguistic landscaping,he demonstrates how multilingual signs can be read as chroniclesdocumenting the complex histories of a place.

This book is an important and valuable

contribution to the growing literature on

linguistic globalization. It offers a thoughtful

reassessment of the nature and significance of

the concept of hybridity, illustrating the key role

it plays in the relationship between language-related issues and

the process of globalization.

PHILIP SEARGEANT, THE OPEN UNIVERSITY, UK

The chapters in this volume seek to bring hybrid language practicesto the center of discussions about English as a global language.They demonstrate how local linguistic resources and practices areinvolved in the refashioning of identities in a variety of cross-cultural and geographical contexts, and illustrate hybridity as anenactment of resistance and creativity.

SALSA, LANGUAGE ANDTRANSNATIONALISMBritta Schneider

By tracing transnational movements of Spanish

together with salsa, Britta Schneider finds her

way into a subtle, language-centered approach

to globalization. Dancing between Germany and

Australia, partnering ethnography with social

critique, she has written an account which is

interesting for its particulars, but also important as an argument

for thinking about language together with bodily practices in new

projects of global modernity.

JOE ERRINGTON, YALE UNIVERSITY, USA

This unique contribution to the field of sociolinguistics scrutiniseslanguage ideologies in a globalised world. Using ethnographicmethodology and a deconstructive approach to language it examinesGerman and Australian Communities of Practice constituted by Salsadance, and asks what languages symbolise in transnational, non-ethnic cultures.

COMMUNICATIVE PRACTICESAT WORKMultimodality and Learning in a High-Tech FirmJo Anne Kleifgen

This book offers a view of the exquisite

complexity of the linguistic and interactional

activities that create the mundane world of

everyday work. Kleifgen crafts her analysis of multilingualism and

multimodality in a high-tech workplace with the same care,

precision and creativity as her subjects craft their circuit boards. It

will stand as a landmark study for the fields of language in the

workplace, workplace ethnography, and informal learning.

CHARLOTTE LINDE, NASA AMES RESEARCH CENTER, USA

The book demonstrates theimportance of accounting for multilingual practices in studies ofmultimodality.

TEACHERS AS MEDIATORS IN THEFOREIGN LANGUAGE CLASSROOMMichelle Kohler

This interesting, well written and important volume takes readers

into the promising and exciting domain of intercultural

communication in which speakers are just representing, but

enacting, different cultures in discourse. Michelle Kohler's highly

readable and theoretically well-grounded contribution to this

emerging field of specialisation is a tribute to her but it also distils

a now well established Australian tradition of intercultural

theorising that is attracting worldwide interest.

JOSEPH LO BIANCO, THE UNIVERSITY OF MELBOURNE, AUSTRALIA

This book uses examples of classroom interaction to reveal howteachers of languages act as intercultural mediators and theimplications of this for practice. The book offers an account of whatteachers are thinking, feeling and doing as they enact anintercultural perspective on language teaching and learning.
