Widdowson says that he'd like to consider this book as a long essay, and I've got to agree--it's like the kind of rambling, unfocused essay that undergraduates get marked down for. If the book were more concise, the chatty tone it takes might soften the rather involved theoretical questions the book (no doubt) addresses, but as it is, it's just annoying.
Much though I wanted to read a book on this topic, this book isn't it. ( )
