Household Perspectives on Minority Language Maintenance and Loss is a book about the costs of language maintenance, or how the author says: ‘This book is about language and much more than language’. The emotional implication of the author is noticeable all along the book, especially in the preface and the conclusions, since she identifies with the Latino community in the USA. The book is the result of the study of 19 households of first-generation Spanish speaking families in the US Midwest. It is based on the analysis of everyday home language dynamics and planning, in other words, in the family language policy.
