Principle and Practice in Applied Linguistics
Studies in Honour of H. G. Widdowson
Guy Cook and Barbara Seidlhofer
This book provides an overview of the diverse issues in applied linguistics today. Leading specialists consider the relation of their own areas of inquiry both to professional practice and to the discipline as a whole.
Pragmatics
George Yule
This book outlines pragmatics, the study of how people make sense of each other linguistically. Basic concepts such as the cooperative principle, deixis, and speech acts are explained and illustrated, providing readers with an ideal foundation for further study.
Practical Stylistics
An Approach to Poetry
H. G. Widdowson

Oxford Applied Linguistics
Series Advisors: Anne Burns and Nick Ellis
The core foundations of applied linguistics have long been located in exploring language as it is used in the world and in finding solutions to language-based problems. Modern applied linguistics is interdisciplinary and wide-ranging, being informed by research spanning psycholinguistics, sociolinguistics, education, corpus linguistics, cognitive linguistics, and other areas of the cognitive, learning, and information sciences.
The goal of the OUP Applied Linguistics Series is to influence the quality of language education through publishing and disseminating relevant scholarship and research.
Literacy and Second Language Oracy
Elaine Tarone, Martha Bigelow, and Kit Hansen
This book offers research evidence with a startling conclusion: language processing skills that have been assumed to be universal human traits appear instead to be a product of learners' experience with alphabetic print literacy.
Literacy and Language Teaching
Richard Kern
This book discusses the need for foreign language programs to teach literacy. It suggests approaches to curriculum development using a wide range of modern media texts such as newspapers, music videos, and film as a basis for cultural analysis.

Linguistic Imperialism
Robert Phillipson
This book explores English as an international language, and how and why it has become so dominant.
