Series: Critical New Literacies: The Praxis of English Language Teaching and Learning

The adoption of English as the language of study and scholarship is becoming increasingly common among universities across Asia. But does this adoption of the English language not also mean the adoption of Western approaches to scholarship and knowledge? This most timely and important book critically examines how EAP practitioners can negotiate between Western and Asian academic practices and approaches to knowledge and scholarship and is essential reading for anyone involved in international education. -Andy Kirkpatrick, Professor in Linguistics, Griffith University
