Walker, James A.

SUMMARY

This book proposes to provide a resource to students and researchers in the broad field of Applied Linguistics on the topic of the linguistic variation. Language Variation is a commonly taught course in the linguistics curriculum. There is at least one journal on the topic, Language Variation and Change (CUP). The Walker book is intended to be an introductory, unified view of variationist analysis for students and researchers coming from other areas of linguistics. The author ties together the work fronm a varitey of languages. This book takes a more theoretical and quantitative approach than other books in the subfield of language variation, which may focus more on cultural issuses, or on specific "case study" languages. Other books also focus more on the methodology and or statistics., but with very little on theory. Professor Walker is very well-known and respected. The reviewers would buy the book unseen simply because of the author.Walker, James A. is the author of 'Variation in Linguistic Systems', published 2010 under ISBN 9780415990684 and ISBN 0415990688.
