An Introduction to Contact Linguistics (Language in Society) ReviewFirst of all, let me make clear that this review is based on the sample. After reading the only review this edition has and downloading the sample, I decided not to buy it - even though having this book right now on my kindle would have helped me a lot - I decided to buy the print version instead.
Why is this edition so bad?
- the font, as mentioned in the other review, is different from other books and not very legible at all.
- the price is far too high. In my opinion, a kindle book should be cheaper than the print version. Where I live this isn't the case, it's about 10$ more expensive to get the kindle version. (Source for print version isn't amazon.com though)
- now to the actual dealbreaker: it doesn't have page numbers.
Clearly, the third point isn't a problem of this particular ebook, but rather of all scientific kindle books. And really, I can't understand what the publishers are thinking. I need this book for a university class, and if someone mentions something from page so and so I need to be able to look that up and not search around until I find it. It gets even worse with actual scientific publication (not introduction/text books like this one), where I'd need to quote something for a paper: I need to be able to refer to a specific page and thus kindle becomes a no go in those situations. I'm not asking for much - they can stick with their percentages and kindle locations, that's fine by me, just make clear what print edition the book is an electronic version of, and then add a page number at the end of each print page - in [] or in {} or whatever brackets are not needed for other purposes. So, if the publisher of this book reads this - think about your target audience and be a tad more realistic.An Introduction to Contact Linguistics (Language in Society) Overview
