Recenzii
This book is a must-read for anyone involved in English Medium Instruction. Richards and Pun offer an academically-rigorous yet highly-comprehensible introduction to a range of key topics related to the delivery of content subjects in English. Important theoretical perspectives are presented alongside implications for practice, and follow-up tasks encourage users to delve more deeply into areas that might be of interest to them. I can easily see this book becoming a core text in many TESOL courses as well as a useful resource for professional development courses for content as well as language teachers".
