Reviews

'Globally, this volume is an extremely valuable contribution that fills a gap that had only been fragmentally filled in the field, and that to the best of our knowledge is not matched by other current studies in extension, depth or how well they succeed to show the intricate relation between the job market, linguistics and society.' - Antonio Fabregas, Borealis, University of Tromso - The Arctic University 'The variety of perspectives and traditions represented in this handbook, besides reflecting the maturity of the field, defines its truly international and interdisciplinary character, making it an excellent resource for students, teachers, and researchers who are interested in the field of applied linguistics and its professional applications.' - Elisa Gironzetti, Texas A&M University
