Full content visible, double tap to read brief content.

Before becoming a full-time writer, I taught English and drama in schools and colleges in Britain, Indonesia, and Kenya. While still teaching, I was lead author of the highly successful series of textbooks, 'Oxford Secondary English'.

In 1987 I stopped teaching to take up writing full-time. Since then I have about a hundred titles to my name, including both educational and trade books, covering topics as diverse as Shakespeare and Pompeii. Recent books include 'The Oxford A-Z of Grammar and Punctuation' and 'The Oxford Guide to Effective Speaking and Writing'.

I now run my own company specialising in the authoring, editing and publication of non-fiction print books and ebooks. Recent titles include 'Grammar for Teachers' and 'Lexis: An introduction to English words'.

My latest book is 'ePublish! - From manuscript to finished ebook in 10 easy stages'. Available in print and on Kindle. More information at www.epublish10.com.

    5.0 out of 5 stars 中級・上級者向けの穏健で安心して読める文法書
    Reviewed in Japan on 8 August 2016
    Verified Purchase
    中級・上級者向けの文法書。２つのセクションからなり、前半のセクションが文法、後半のセクションが語法辞典を兼ねた文法用語辞典である。気のついたところを２点だけあげると、ひとつは、文型は日本でよく知られた５文型に、S +V +Adverbial, S+V+O+ Adverbialを加えて７文型を提唱していること（『ジーニアス英和辞典』も７文型を採用している）。 もう一つはイギリス英語とアメリカ英語を区別せず、英語という枠でひとくくりしていることである。たとえば、多くのイギリスの文法書あるいはEFL辞典はI feel like a brick has been dropped on my head.に見られるようなlikeの接続使用法をアメリカ英語の口語用法としているが、本書では「インフォーマルなレベルでしばしば使われるが、規範主義文法を唱える人には受け入れられていない。as if を用いるのがよい」といった趣旨のことが述べられ、アメリカ英語云々には言及されていない(p,117, p.174）。生活語彙は別として、一般の語法では英米の区別は次第に薄れてきているということであろう。
    全体的に穏健な内容で、安心して読める文法書である。

    My English course requires this book, so I thought i'd buy a cheaper second-hand version, it's in okay condition, but it did state good condition, yeah, it's readable but there were ripped pages, and several receipts in it from the library it came from, which were from previous loans of the book.
