A pragmatic tool for utilization at the local level, this collection provides an international panorama of language pedagogy that is of great use to both junior and senior researchers.

'[This] book is not only interesting, but extremely useful. It offers a clear synthesis of the needs and challenges associated with ESP and LSP while giving language practitioners a source of innovative approaches and materials to be implemented in their classrooms. The international nature of the scholars who contributed to this volume also provides a variety of outlooks on foreign language learning and teaching in today's global society.'Anne-Laure Dubrac, Des causes multifactorielles a l'origine des situations d'enseignement innovantes en LansadMore details
