| Title | New Book: Ideas and Options in English for Specific Purposes |
| Body | From https://www.erlbaum.com/shop/tek9.asp?pg=products&specific=0-8058-4417-1 Author/Editor: Helen Basturkmen Series: ESL & Applied Linguistics Professional Series Year: 2006 This volume presents a range of views about language, learning, and teaching in English for Specific Purposes (ESP). Its purpose is to go beyond individual cases and practices to examine the approaches and ideas on which they are based. The aim is for readers to adopt an analytical stance toward the field and to identify current perspectives in ESP and the ideas driving them. Ideas and Options in English for Specific Purposes does not promote any one approach, but rather identifies and illustrates those in evidence today. The main emphasis is on the links between theory and ESP teaching and research. Ideas from linguistics, sociolinguistics, education, SLA, and social theories are described. Links are then made between these ideas and ESP course designs, instructional materials, and research projects. Thus the book moves back and forth between descriptions of theories, teaching practice, and research.
