This is a welcome addition to the increasing number of books on vocabulary, and an enjoyable, engaging, and insightful resource that highlights Norbert Schmitt's profound impact on the field of vocabulary studies.-- "Elke Peters, KU Leuven, Belgium"<br><br>This volume presents a number of enlightening and original chapters which have been written as a tribute to Professor Norbert Schmitt. The breadth and high standard of his work is reflected in the central themes explored and the methodological quality of the studies presented in this book on lexical description, lexical acquisition and vocabulary teaching.-- "Birgit Henriksen, University of Copenhagen, Denmark"<br><br>With the rediscovery of vocabulary in the 1990s came a new sense of how much applied-ness is appropriate to applied linguistics. Norbert Schmitt, notably, found the sweet spot between scientific rigour and practitioner relatable research, and in this excellent volume we see that his students are more than able to carry the project forward. Not that Norbert himself will be very far away from it for a long time to come!-- "Tom Cobb, University of Quebec at Montreal, Canada"<br><p/><br></br><p><b> About the Author </b></p></br></br><p>Pawel Szudarski is Assistant Professor in Applied Linguistics at the University of Nottingham, UK.
