  Contributions from a wide range of related areas are assembled in this book: psycholinguistics, pragmatics, second language acquisition, syntax, text linguistics and sociolinguistics, as well as educational and applied linguistics. These contributions enable the applied linguist to keep up-to-date with current thinking in diverse fields. The editiorial introductions to the papers show how their contents relate to each other and discuss some of the practical implications for language teaching and language assessment.
