Title: Book: Language Teacher Education in a Multilingual Context
Body: From http://www.springer.com/education+%26+language/learning+%26+instruction/book/978-94-007-7391-2 Language Teacher Education in a Multilingual Context By John Trent, Xuesong Gao, and Mingyue Gu Published by Springer This book provides a multifaceted, multilayered examination of the processes and challenges language teachers face in constructing their professional identities in multilingual contexts such as Hong Kong.
