"As a whole, this anthology serves both as an useful primer to some
of the most controversial topics in the field and as a
thought-provoking series of chapters addressing core concerns of
world Englishes scholars: standards, teaching, intelligibility, and
policy. While few entries contribute entirely unfamiliar material,
they do provide an accessible refresher for those wanting to become
up-to-date in the field. And especially welcome in a text about
world Englishes topics is the diversity of the authors themselves:
while the majority are Inner Circle-based scholars, only two are
working from the United States. This diversity, along with the
variety of topics and opinions, makes this accessible and engaging
volume worthy of thoughtful consideration of its many provocative
ideas." -Tracey McHenry, World Englishes, 2009
