The ultimate intention of the author of this publication was to provide readers with the source of info that covers all core areas of the English language. The book is a remarkably comprehensive intro to the subject, and it is also exploring the ongoing debates in world Englishes, their testing and teaching.

The publication draws on a wide range of tests, examples and other data, e.g. articles from world popular newspapers, and it also includes some classic readings. Most of the important sociopolitical and historical developments in the world Englishes have been covered in this book. The title is very interesting and very well-written. The layout is perfect and makes this book very easy to read. It covers most of the related topics in a very clear format.

The complexity of the English language must never be underestimated and readers should not take the sensitivities surrounding it lightly. The efforts made by the author have resulted in an excellent resource for the students to introduce them to the rapidly growing field of world Englishes. Note that references have been made to the materials straight out from our everyday life, and such approach made the whole content of the volume easily accessible for everyone.
