Rezensionen

"This new and revised edition of Global Englishes lives up to the success of previous editions, with the authors outlining a concern to expand the scope of themes in the area as a whole, offering the reader an even richer material and, in many aspects, brilliantly locally situated. Throughout the manuscript, we come across themes and issues anchored in sensitive grounds which stimulate, among many reflections, a critical view in relation to the political, ideological and pedagogical implications of the expansion of English around the world, its condition as a global lingua franca, contemplating, for instance, the production of knowledge in the field in commonly invisible contexts such as Latin America. An excellent and always timely resource for teachers, students and teacher trainers that is renewed and will certainly serve as a reference not only for differentiated ELT practices, but also for the investigative work of researchers in all parts of the planet."

Sávio Siqueira, Bahia Federal University, Brazil

'I have been using the previous editions in my teaching and found it a great one-stop resource for both students with no prior linguistic knowledge, and linguistic students new to the debates of World Englishes. Students in my Common Core courses particularly appreciate the easy-to-read yet comprehensive approach to the subject, as well as the insightfully designed activities and discussion points. The new edition, Global Englishes, continues this excellent tradition with a much-needed addition to Englishes in China, and timely updates on the rapid and ever changing development of Englishes in this globalized world. It will certainly continue to be one of the most accessible and useful resources for students.' Katherine Chen, Assistant Professor, School of English, University of Hong Kong, Hong Kong
