Abstract

As I was preparing to do a workshop on research in second language acquisition, Evaluating research articles by Girden arrived on my desk. The timing was perfect and I was pleased to have this additional resource at my disposal. The book is designed for a wide-ranging audience, with examples presented from a variety of fields (e.g., social work, education, medicine, and psychology), although second language acquisition is not among them. The studies cited as examples include studies that are flawed in one way or the other, with the author leading the reader to understand the flaws.
