Rezensionen

"This is a timely and well-researched book on how a multidisciplinary approach to corpus linguistics can be used to illuminate the target models of English that are used by teachers in the English as a foreign language (EFL) classroom context, especially at a time when standard British/American norms are being challenged. The book convincingly argues that suitable target models of English for EFL pedagogy should include more varieties, and especially varieties used by EFL teachers 'at the chalk face'."

Thomas S.C. Farrell, Brock University, Canada

"With its combination of corpus-based, discourse-analytic and SLA approaches, this book not only brings fresh insights to the debates around suitable target varieties for ELT, but is also an invaluable resource for teacher education and professional development."

Thomas Morton, Birkbeck, University of London, UK
