Extract

Juan Manuel Hernández Campoy & Manuel Almeida, Metodología de la investigación sociolingüística. Málaga: Comares, 2005. Pp. xv, 349.

In the Prologue (pp. ix–x), Peter Trudgill rightly acknowledges the authors as “highly experienced” in carrying out sociolinguistic research and as “first-class practitioners.” In the Introducción (xi–xiv), Hérnandez Campoy and Almeida (HC&A) state that their work is an attempt to compensate for the scarcity of “introductory manuals dedicated to present the methodology and procedures in sociolinguistic research” (xi), as opposed to the large number of theoretical books on the discipline.
