Recenzii

This book's coverage of both academic and applied aspects of how teacher learning can be facilitated in a variety of settings is very topical, comprehensive, well-integrated and insightful. It is also structured imaginatively and is engaging in tone. Definitely a 'must' for would-be and practising teacher educators and others interested in the subject! Alan Waters, Lancaster University, UKThis book is a timely and important addition to the language teacher education literature. Its focus on understanding and enhancing relationships between theory and practice in teacher learning is central to contemporary concerns in the field and the variety of perspectives it brings to the analysis of these relationships makes it very relevant to an international readership of language teacher educators.Simon Borg, University of Leeds, UKThis valuable collection of papers is concerned with both the theory and practice of English language education, exploring in detail how the two can and should relate. Part of its value lies in its recognition that teacher education approaches must be highly context-sensitive, and for this reason the book will make essential background reading to professionals world-wide. Highly stimulating.Keith Johnson, Lancaster University, UK
