Abstract
In the opening chapter, Ken Beatty compares his book to a map used by early explorers. His hope, he says, is to provide readers with a guide to the terra incognita that constitutes CALL, which is still a relatively new and constantly changing field. The book, published as part of Pearson Education's Applied Linguistics in Action Series, has the stated aim of providing a current, critical, and accessible-yet-authoritative account of developments in the field that will be relevant to both practitioners and researchers, which is important, according to Beatty, since "increasingly c they are the same people" (2003, p. 1).
