"I am currently reading this for a class. I do not like it nearly as much as my other linguistics textbook which focuses on second language acquisition."
"This book is very useful for the students of sociolinguistics as it covers vast topics on the history and rather politics of languages in various countries.
One of the issue which keeps busy the governement of all countries concerns with the political linguistics. How they deal with the various languages which are spoken and what are their approaches towards the betterment/encouragement or rather eradication of certain language.
All the basic terminologies of sociolinguistics are well defined and differences are well elaborated in this book."
