Title: Words and worlds
Description: "This World Languages Review aims to examine the sociolinguistic situation of the world: to describe the linguistic diversity that currently characterises humanity, to evaluate trends towards linguistic uniformity, and to establish a set of guidelines or language planning measures that favour the weaker or more endangered linguistic communities, so that anyone engaged in language planning government officials, institution leaders, researchers and community members - can implement these measures."--Jacket.
