Review Quotes: "It is no simple task to write a handbook on a burgeoning research field such as EE that caters to all categories of readers, and on balance, Sundqvist and Sylvén succeed in contributing to the field of ELT by making a case for putting learners' engagement with English outside school (EE) high on the pedagogical agenda, and by suggesting viable ways of equpping teachers and learners to use EE as an educational resource." (Per Snoder, ELT journal, Vol. 73 (1), January, 2019)
