The Routledge Handbook of World Englishes constitutes a
comprehensive introduction to the study of World Englishes drawing
on the expertise of leading authors within the field. The Handbook
is structured in nine sections covering historical perspectives,
core issues and topics and new debates which together provide a
thorough overview of the field taking into account the new
directions in which the discipline is heading. Among the key themes
covered are the development of English as a lingua franca among
speakers for whom English is a common but not first language, the
parallel development of English as a medium of instruction in
educational institutions throughout the world and the role of
English as the international language of scholarship and scholarly
publishing, as well as the development of 'computer-mediated'
Englishes, including 'cyberprose'. The Handbook also includes a
substantial introduction and conclusion from the editor. The
Routledge Handbook of World Englishes is the ideal resource for
postgraduate students of applied linguistics as well as those in
related degrees such as applied English language and TESOL/TEFL.
