Unpublished endorsement

“In no area of learning is motivation more important than in language acquisition.  The chapters of this book address both the basics and the nuances of motivational dynamics, focusing on the roles of student, teacher, and culture in understanding what helps people travel the long road to fluency in a second language. This collection represents an essential resource for anyone studying or practising in this area”(Richard Ryan, Professor, Institute for Positive Psychology and Education, Australian Catholic University, Australia, and Editor of The Oxford Handbook of Human Motivation.)<p>“This invaluable and comprehensive compendium reflects the intellectual vitality that currently characterizes the field of language motivation research, while happily also laying the groundwork for future research. Motivation is a truly important topic in language learning; we simply must understand it better. And this handbook will certainly facilitate our doing so.”(Diane Larsen-Freeman, ProfessorEmerita of Education and of Linguistics, University of Michigan, USA)<br></p>

<p>“This masterful collection takes readers on an untrodden journey through the field of motivation to learn languages. Seminal authors representing diverse thinking explore connections between theory and practice, rigour and ethics, history of ideas and future aspirations, all along traversing motivation in individuals, contexts, and systems. A book to treasure!” (Lourdes Ortega, Professor of Applied Linguistics, Georgetown University, USA.)<br></p>
