Reviews

This book provides a useful guide for those interested in using CoP as a conceptual and analytically tool for applied linguistics research. It provides a much-needed and detailed critique of how CoP research has been interpreted and used, drawing attention to the need for equal consideration of the linguistic and social when examining the interaction of social practices and modes of belonging. Donna Starks, La Trobe University, Australia
