Synopsis:
Doing Applied Linguistics provides a concise, lively and accessible introduction to the field of applied linguistics for readers who have little or no prior knowledge of the subject.

- What is applied linguistics, and what do applied linguists do?
- Why do it? What is the point of applied linguistics?
- How and why might I get involved in applied linguistics?
- How to do it? What kinds of activities are involved in doing applied linguistic research?
