This volume provides a concise overview of linguistic description
in the field of English for Academic Purposes, charting its
evolution and categorizing the various strands of research
interest. Given the increasing use of English as a lingua franca,
there has been a corresponding upsurge into research in EAP. The
book synthesizes this research in one single volume and offers
brief overviews on key terms and topics in EAP, including academic
events and study genres, professional research genres and
disciplinary discourses. This volume is key reading for graduate
students new to the field as well as established researchers
looking to expand their knowledge base in EAP. The work highlights
the kinds of descriptions of academic English that have resulted
from the research, which can be of interest to disciplinary
teachers and lecturers, including those in English medium
instruction.
