Summary:	I posted a request a couple of weeks ago for suggestions on a recent sociolinguistics/TESL text. I wish to extend thanks to the following for their suggestions and comments: Feng-Ling Margaret Johnson Andreas Schramm Dorine Houston Julie Whitlow Gayle Nelson Patricia McCoy Ben Larson Robert Bayley Janet Benger I appologize for any name I may have left out. The popular choice for such a text was "Sociolinguistics and Language Teacing", C.U.P. by S. McKay and N. Hornberger. The most recent edition is 1996. The next popular choice was "Sociolinguistics and TESOL", 1989. by N. Wolfson (the text I used last year). It was still recommended in spite of the date of the most recent edition - 1989. Other texts recommended were: Culture Bound: Bridging the Cultural Gap in Language Teaching." By J. Merrill Valdes Lost in Translation: A Life in a New Language." By E. Hoffman Hunger of Memory." By R. Rodriguez "The Multicultural Classroom." 1992. By P. Richard-Amato & M. Snow "An Introduction to Sociolinguistics." By R. Wardhaugh. Once again, thanks to all who responded to my request.
