"[T]he book fills an existing gap in the literature of grammaticality judgment tasks. […] It is commendable that the authors are well-seasoned in the relevant research and researchers can immensely benefit. [… T]he book can be taught at an MA level in applied linguistics programs." - Mohammad Salehi, Sharif University of Technology, in International Journal of Applied Linguistics
