purpose and strategy, which certainly implies that a number of different strategies should be used in vocabulary acquisition. In this view, the question of when a learner should skip, guess, look up, etc., is largely determined by the purpose of reading. Another aspect which needs to be stressed is not only the need to read extensively but how this activity leads to acquisition, that is, the question raised by Krashen (1989). In short, from this viewpoint the reader/learner needs to be taught various metacognitive strategies which will guide the more specific strategies for vocabulary acquisition (Oxford, 1990). However, in the final analysis this is a book which should be on the reference shelf of every ESL/EFL teacher who believes that attention must be paid to vocabulary as a significant variable in language learning
