The nine scholars of English or linguistics who contribute chapters are or were associated with the school and the course from which the textbook was drawn and which continues to be taught at Roehampton University in London. They introduce students to central concepts around language, society, and power, drawing not only from English as it is spoken around the world, but in this edition also some non-English languages. After pondering what language is, they look at it in relation to thought and representation, politics, the media, gender, ethnicity, age, social class, identity, and standardi[s/z]ation. A final chapter presents projects. A companion reader is available. Earlier editions were published in 1999 and 2004. Annotation ©2011 Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com)
