Rezensionen

"The book hasimportant implications for understanding what is possible inlanguage classrooms as a part of educational institutions, and isparticularly illuminating in challenging some of the tenets ofcommunicative methodology. Given that CA attempts to describe theuniqueness of specific interactions, but uses what it claims is a'context-free' machinery, and the fact that thedatabase is wide-ranging, the book is likely to have relevance forsecond and foreign language teaching across a wide range ofcontexts." - ThomasMorton, University of Leeds - AppliedLinguistics
