Rezensionen

'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
