Reviews

The editors are to be congratulated on having planned and completed this monumental reference work to near-perfection and in a remarkably short time. With its fairly strict framework it constitutes the first sizeable data source for the study of 'angloversals', while at the same time offering a wide range of individual, committed accounts of speech communities around the world, mostly based on recent fieldwork undertaken by the authors themselves. It will serve as an inspiration for further research by students and scholars today as well as in the foreseeable future. Gunnel Melchers in: English Language and Linguistics 14.3/2010
