Books, Friends, and Bibliophilia
First English language edition. "Books, Friends, and Bibliophilia" is a unique autobiographical by a very interesting Dutch antiquarian bookseller. The book is also a well-written look behind the scenes of Europe's antiquarian book trade from 1950 to the present.

He weaves within his work the stories behind the building of important private libraries and the Special Collections department in the institutional libraries of Western Europe and behind the Iron Curtain.Anton Gertis is past President of the International League of Antiquarian Booksellers. He is also the author of over a dozen books; however, this memoir is an excellent overview of his long and fascinating career and will be of interest to collectors and bibliophiles the world over.
Examining Listening
This volume examines the nature of second language listening proficiency and how it can be assessed. The book highlights the need for test developers to provide a clear explication of the ability constructs which underpin the tests they offer in the public domain. This is increasingly necessary if claims about the validity of test score interpretation and use are to be supported both logically and with empirical evidence. It operationalises a comprehensive test validation framework which adopts a socio-cognitive perspective. The framework embraces six core components, examining and then analysing Cambridge ESOL listening tasks from the following perspectives: Test Taker; Cognitive Validity; Context Validity; Scoring Validity; Criterion-related Validity; and Consequential Validity.
