“This book represents a comprehensive and challenging overview of the status of English language and its teaching worldwide. The writers capture the dynamic and complex nature of English language. The collection captures the worldwide changes in variety and terms of English use and users. It also considers critical issues such as sociolinguistic status. The chapters provide a rich picture of the diversity of communicative purposes in different social settings (e.g., classrooms, workplaces, and academic encounters).” (Steve Mann (Associate Professor), University of Warwick, UK)
