by Colin Baker (Author)
The book aims to establish the concept of attitudes as more central to the study of minority and majority languages. The strong tradition of attitude theory and research from social psychology is made relevant to language restoration and decay. Research shows how attitude to bilingualism is distinct from attitude to a specific language.
