5.0 out of 5 stars Very pleased
Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 7 September 2018

First of all, the book was in perfect condition upon arrival. Secondly, delivery was quick, even though I live in Norway. Finally, the book is great; it covers every aspect of second language learning one can think of, providing a useful overview of the different topics. It provides excellent background theory for my master's thesis on second language learning.

5.0 out of 5 stars Una manual imprescindible para aquellos interesados en conocer el estado actual de la investigación en la adquisición de L2
Reviewed in Spain on 24 January 2014

Se trata de un manual de referencia en el que puedes encontrar información para tus estudios de grado, máster o doctorado. En él encontrarás datos sobre estudios descriptivos y explicativos y un estudio crítico sobre ellos con argumentos empíricos y teóricos. Por supuesto, el Dr. Ellis utiliza su punto de vista a la hora de introducir los temas, pero creo que es bastante ecuánime a la hora de describir las teorías explicativas sobre la AL2.

5.0 out of 5 stars An essential reference
Reviewed in the United States on 24 May 2010

I would recommend this book as a reference for anyone studying or researching SLA. It has an incredibly comprehensive list of references and despite its magnitude is surprisingly easy to read. Professor Rod Ellis is widely regarded as one of the world's leading authorities on the subject and with nearly four pages of the (110-page!) bibliography filled with his own publications alone it is easy to see why. The book is logically organised and easy to navigate. It is not the type of book most people would read for fun, but as a reference for anyone planning a literature review, I couldn't rate it highly enough; truly an indispensable resource!

Ate the beginning I saw the reading of this book very dense and kind of high level. But later on, I satarted reading all the research examples that that Dr. Ellis provides and It is incredible to see all the research work he has done throughout the years to compile all of them in this huge and excellent book. It helped me understand a lot of things of Second language acqusition.
Great book!!!
