Chantal Bouchard is a linguist and a professor in the Département de langue et de littérature française at McGill University. She lives in Montreal, Quebec. Luise von Flotow is a translation studies professor at the University of Ottawa. She lives in Ottawa, Ontario.

...the book is a very insightful read which will appeal to specialists and non-specialists alike who have sought to go beyond the 'short historical' perspective to examine how the language situation in Quebec arose, was conditioned and shaped, and subsequently evolved beyond the wildest dreams of those who participated in defining that history.

- Martin Howard, University College, Cork, British Journal of Canadian Studies
