Research Synthesis Methodologies in Applied Linguistics by Sin Wang Chong
This edited volume offers a critical examination of research synthesis in Applied Linguistics at a time when such work is increasingly influential and increasingly misunderstood. The volume brings together reflective accounts of conducting and editing different types of research syntheses. Instead of a procedural manual, the book foregrounds the ethical and methodological decisions that shape research syntheses in practice. Across the book, contributors discuss opportunities, constraints, and tensions between standardisation and innovation. The book is written for researchers, postgraduate students, journal editors, and methodologists who are interested in research synthesis as a reflexive, situated, and collaborative form of scholarship.-
