Introducing English for Specific Purposes presents the key concepts and practices of ESP in a modern, balanced, and comprehensive way. This book defines ESP and shows how the approach plays a crucial role in the world of English language teaching. Explaining how needs analysis, language and learning objectives, materials and methods, and evaluation combine to form the four main pillars of ESP, the book includes:











practical examples that illustrate how the core theories and practices of ESP can be applied in real-world academic and occupational settings;





discussion of some of the most hotly debated issues in ESP;





insights on how ESP courses can be organized and integrated to form a complete program;





reflection boxes, practical tasks, extension research questions, and resources for further reading in each chapter.

Introducing English for Specific Purposes serves as an ideal textbook for graduate and advanced undergraduate students studying courses on English for Specific Purposes or English for Academic Purposes, as part of degrees in English for Specific Purposes, Education, ELT, Applied Linguistics, TESOL or TEFL. This comprehensive publication is also an invaluable reference resource for pre-service and in-service teachers of ESP, and for English program managers and administrators.

Recenzijas

"Laurence Anthony has done a great job of providing both novice and experienced teachers with an up-to-date and comprehensive introduction to ESP. Assuming no previous knowledge of the topic, he packs into this short book a great deal of background on the history, context and principles of ESP together with user-friendly, detailed suggestions of how to go about the nuts and bolts of designing and teaching a course. Written in a personal and accessible style and with copious tasks, examples and research ideas, this is an invaluable resource for those new to ESP and looking for sensible advice and clear guidance."

Ken Hyland, University of East Anglia, UK

"Laurence Anthony's very useful contribution to the ESP literature is accessible and interactive. It offers broad-ranging coverage of both ESP contexts and ways of responding to them. Although a relatively slim volume, it is by no means a slight one."

John M. Swales, University of Michigan, USA

"Introducing English for Specific Purposes is an accessible and comprehensive introduction to ESP, balancing both pedagogy and research. The texts candid and friendly prose will be useful in introducing truly novice readers to the field of ESP, particularly undergraduates and pre-service teachers studying in a TESL/TEFL program."

Erin Todey, The Electronic Journal for English as a Second Language

"The writing style of this book is direct and friendly. The language is clear and concise. The regular pattern in each chapter enables readers either to read chapter by chapter to develop a coherent view, or to read selectively to meet their current needs. To sum up, Anthony has written an informative and resourceful book, offering a contemporary and comprehensive view of ESP. [ ] It deserves a place on the bookshelves of graduate students in applied linguistics, language teachers or ESP administrators."
