Despite having drawn increasing attention from researchers as a growing subfield within SLA, Instructed Second Language Acquisition (ISLA) has been lacking a reference book with a thorough and up-to-date overview of the field. Recently, two publications by Sato and Lowen have come to fill this void, addressing ISLA from two different perspectives: The Routledge Handbook of Instructed Second Language Acquisition (2017) is mostly focused on research and is intended mainly for academics, while the book under review is meant for both researchers and teachers as it is the result of a determined effort to bridge the gap between research and pedagogy. This volume is a collection of empirical research in ISLA carried out by top scholars in their different areas of expertise aiming to offer clear-cut pedagogical applications and to stimulate further much-needed investigations in the area.

Abstract
Despite having drawn increasing attention from researchers as a growing subfield within SLA, Instructed Second Language Acquisition (ISLA) has been lacking a reference book with a thorough and up-to-date overview of the field. Recently, two publications by Sato and Lowen have come to fill this void, addressing ISLA from two different perspectives: The Routledge Handbook of Instructed Second Language Acquisition (2017) is mostly focused on research and is intended mainly for academics, while the book under review is meant for both researchers and teachers as it is the result of a determined effort to bridge the gap between research and pedagogy. This volume is a collection of empirical research in ISLA carried out by top scholars in their different areas of expertise aiming to offer clear-cut pedagogical applications and to stimulate further much-needed investigations in the area.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
