“The book has
important implications for understanding what is possible in
language classrooms as a part of educational institutions, and is
particularly illuminating in challenging some of the tenets of
communicative methodology. Given that CA attempts to describe the
uniqueness of specific interactions, but uses what it claims is a
‘context-free’ machinery, and the fact that the
database is wide-ranging, the book is likely to have relevance for
second and foreign language teaching across a wide range of
contexts.” – Thomas
Morton, University of Leeds – Applied
Linguistics
