    Why don't you give exact delivery time?

    Delivery time is estimated on our previous experiences. We give estimations only, because we order from outside Hungary, and the delivery time mainly depends on how quickly the publisher supplies the book. Faster or slower deliveries both happen, but we do our best to supply as quickly as possible.

    Long description:

    Mapping Applied Linguistics: A Guide for Students and Practitioners, Third Edition, provides a newly updated, wide-ranging introduction to the full scope of applied linguistics. This innovative book maps the diverse and constantly expanding range of theories, methods, and issues faced by students and practitioners around the world, integrating both sociocultural and cognitive perspectives. Practically oriented and ideally suited to students new to the discipline, Mapping Applied Linguistics provides in-depth coverage of:


    • multilingualism, language variation, and Global Englishes


    • literacy, language teaching, and bilingual education


    • discourse analysis


    • language policy and planning


    • lexicography and translation


    • language pathology and forensic linguistics


    The third edition integrates new developments such as activist applied linguistics, raciolinguistics, translanguaging, and generative AI. It includes many new references and weblinks, completely updated further reading (including several open-source books), as well as revised activity suggestions for each chapter. The online support material has been fully updated, providing a wealth of additional learning material, including activities, flashcards, and links to the latest online resources.


    Mapping Applied Linguistics is essential reading for students studying applied linguistics, TESOL, general linguistics, and language and literacy education at the advanced undergraduate or master’s degree level. It also provides a gateway for practitioners and specialists seeking to better understand the wider scope of their work.



    “This unique book is a comprehensive and insightful resource for anyone in the field of applied linguistics. It bridges theory and practice, offers valuable tools and includes contemporary issues such as translanguaging, raciolinguistics and the impact of technology. A must-read for anyone exploring the dynamic nature of language studies.”


    Deena Boraie, International Research Foundation for English Language Education, Former president, TESOL International Organization


    “The book is beneficial to both the student and seasoned applied linguist because it provides a bird's eye view of applied linguistics, covering some of the major fields: lexicography, discourse analysis and other topics which are rapidly having an impact on applied linguistics, such as language pathology. The book clearly captures applied linguistics as both an established and growing field.”


    Sinfree Makoni, Pennsylvania State University, USA


    Mapping Applied Linguistics (third edition) delivers a thorough, engaging, and no-nonsense overview of the field. With expanded insights on sign languages, raciolinguistics, and translanguaging, it addresses contemporary language-related issues with clarity and depth. It is an essential guide for applied linguistics students and practitioners alike.”


    Zhu Hua, University College London, UK, Former chair, British Association for Applied Linguistics


    Mapping Applied Linguistics offers an insightful and comprehensive exploration of the dynamic and ever-evolving field of applied linguistics, systematically navigates through complex topics like language learning, translation, literacy, and the challenges faced by endangered language communities, and captures the essence of applied linguistics as it intersects with crucial global issues, including migration, technological advancements, and environmental changes.”
