The book is reader-friendly for those who are beginning in this engaging field, and serves as a complete compilation for those who are beyond the basic level. This book follows an impeccable pedagogical path from the beginning to the end that makes this textbook indispensable for the teaching of Hispanic sociolinguistics at the introductory university level." - Boletín de Lingüística "Introducción a la sociolingüística hispánica es un texto con una unidad innegable, que abarca los principales postulados de la sociolingüística con rigor y sin menospreciar el detalle. La obra constituye un texto amistoso para quienes se inician en tan apasionante labor y un “álbum”, sin desperdicio, para los ya iniciados. La impecable huella didáctica del texto se mantiene presente de principio a fin y hace de esta obra un manual indispensable para la enseñanza de la sociolingüística hispánica en los niveles universitarios introductorios." - Boletín de Lingüística "... Díaz-Campos provides a detailed panorama of the sociolinguistic studies to date, utilizes an engaging writing style, and incorporates innovative activities and exercises. The textbook is an excellent teaching tool for instructors of Hispanic linguistics and is a must-read for students in the field." - LINGUIST, May 2015 This book is very well organized and presents the material with an eye to classroom teaching. For instance, after each chapter there are reading comprehension questions that can help teachers organize class discussion and students develop their critical thinking skills. There are also subsections in each chapter that include contextualized tasks for the students that invite them to reflect on their own sociolinguistic settings, to apply the concepts learned, and to think about research topics… Every chapter introduces novel ways to conceive sociolinguistic phenomena. - Margarita Jara Yupanqui, Sociolinguistic Studies, February 2017 Show Less
