Sinossi editore
I remain awed by Baker's ability to represent all positions and include all viewpoints, while remaining simple and straightforward. It is its scholarly exhaustiveness and complexity, coupled with a simplicity of style, that makes this text invaluable for students and scholars alike. -- Ofelia Garcia, Teachers College, Colombia University This fourth edition combines a vast updated overview of recent developments in the field of bilingualism, which are solidly anchored in the basic concepts necessary for an understanding of major issues. Integrating and balancing many perspectives from varied disciplines the book is clear, highly readable, provocative but not polemical. No better comprehensive introduction to the ever-expanding research on bilingualism exists. -- Professor Hugo Baetens Beardsmore, Universite Libre de Bruxelles "Foundations of Bilingual Education and Bilingualism" by Colin Baker, has become a classic in the field and has been updated and released in a fourth edition.
