This book is for university students, with at least a
mid-intermediate level of English. It is designed both for
self-study and also as a support for a course on academic
communication. It can thus be used alongside the companion volumes:
Writing an Academic Paper in English and Giving an Academic
Presentation in English. The book focuses only on those areas that
are either the most commonly found in academic communication and/or
cause the most problems. It is thus considerably more accessible
than a traditional grammar or style guide. Grammar coverage
includes: articles (a/an, the), countable vs uncountable nouns,
modal verbs (can, may, could, might), comparisons, present and past
tenses, link words, prepositions, and verbs that cause grammatical
difficulties. There is a strong focus on those elements that make a
paper more readable, and a presentation more accessible and
memorable: clarity and empathy, sentence length, word order, and
punctuation. There are chapters on two key areas of communication
in academia: writing emails to editors, drafting a CV/resume. The
book is laid out simply, with short explanations, and lots of
example sentences (plus typical mistakes). Other books in the
series: Writing an Academic Paper in English Giving an Academic
Presentation in English Adrian Wallwork is the author of more than
40 ELT and EAP textbooks. He has trained several thousand PhD
students and researchers from around 50 countries to write research
papers and give presentations. He is also the co-founder of
e4ac.com, an editing agency for non-native English-speaking
researchers.
