The Routledge Handbook of World Englishes constitutes a comprehensive introduction to the study of World Englishes. With a new substantial introduction from the editor, the Handbook is an ideal resource for students of applied linguistics as well as those in related degrees such as applied English language and TESOL/TEFL.
'This revised and extended edition will be widely welcomed, providing as it does an accessible and extremely informative and comprehensive survey of the developing diversity of World Englishes, both as a significant global phenomenon and as a prolific area of enquiry.'
H.G.Widdowson, University of Vienna, Austria
