The Routledge Handbook of Vocabulary Studies provides a cutting-edge survey of current scholarship in this area. Divided into four sections, which cover understanding vocabulary; approaches to teaching and learning vocabulary; measuring knowledge of vocabulary; and key issues in teaching, researching, and measuring vocabulary, this Handbook:

* brings together a wide range of approaches to learning words to provide clarity on how best vocabulary might be taught and learned;

* provides a comprehensive discussion of the key issues and challenges in vocabulary studies, with research taken from the past 40 years;

* includes chapters on both formulaic language as well as single-word items;

* features original contributions from a range of internationally renowned scholars as well as academics at the forefront of innovative research.

The Routledge Handbook of Vocabulary Studies is an essential text for those interested in teaching, learning, and researching vocabulary.

The Routledge Handbook of Vocabulary Studies Avis

This is an outstanding contribution to the field of second language vocabulary acquisition. It is full of state-of-the-art articles by all the leading researchers and theorists in the field. This book should be recommended reading for researchers, practitioners and administrators interested in understanding how a second language vocabulary is learnt.

Rob Waring, Notre Dame Seishin University, Japan

The relatively young field of vocabulary studies has recently developed and widened to such an extent that a volume covering all its subdomains was badly needed. This volume brings us up to date with 35 contributions, written by among the best experts in the world, competently edited by Stuart Webb, one of the most prominent researchers in this field. There is simply no good reason not to consult this volume.

Jan Hulstijn, University of Amsterdam, The Netherlands
