<p>This book highlights how Robert Gardner’s seminal work has influenced the research of an array of scholars who, through diverse, rigourous methods, have developed their own important lines of inquiry on topics such as identity, acculturation, emotions, and well-being, culminating in a unique perspective on the social psychology of language and intergroup relations.</p>

Kimberly A. Noels, University of Alberta, Canada

<p>Anyone seeking an up-to-date assessment of sixty years of motivation research since Gardner and Lambert’s (1959) ground-breaking proposal for a social-educational model will find in this volume a treasure trove of theoretical, empirical, and methodological insights, made all the richer by critical, dialogic engagement alongside personal reminiscences by top researchers in the field.</p>

Heidi Byrnes, Georgetown University, USA

<p>This book is highly recommended for anyone interested in learning more about Robert Gardner himself and his personal relationship with some of the renowned authors in this book as well as the significant ways Gardner has made an impact in their personal and professional lives. It is my opinion that this book has the potential to push the field of language learning motivation forward</p>
