    5.0 out of 5 stars Content and practicality of the book
    Reviewed in Italy on 24 March 2016
    Verified Purchase
    I 'met' this book a couple of years ago when I was teaching in the U.K. and I said to myself 'I will buy it one day'. And I am still convinced it is really useful and I am happy with my purchase.
    Apart from describing the constituent elements of the English language thoroughly and in a straightforward way, I think the plus of Thorne's book is when she applies her analytical ability to a vast range of genres providing teachers with the practical tools to recognise the genre features in the examples. The genre analysis section is the real 'meat' of the whole book also in terms of number of pages devoted to it. In conclusion, Thorne has drawn from Linguistics and Genre Analysis and has finally succeeded in training teachers, and learners, to look at genre with those critical eyes we all need to understand what is behind a piece of writing of any kind.

    5.0 out of 5 stars libro veramente ottimo
    Reviewed in Italy on 1 December 2016
    Verified Purchase
    acquistato per fini universitari, sono rimasta piacevolmente sorpresa dalla qualità e versatilità di questo libro. Ideale per imparare le basi della linguistica inglese e i meccanismi del linguaggio pubblicitario, è interessante da leggere anche al di fuori del proprio percorso di studi. Consigliato.

    Really amazing. I was very apprehensive in buying this but I am so glad that I did. Everything is explained so well, in detail, explained. I am doing A-Level English and was really struggling. Only had it a couple weeks and it have already helped me. Thank you so much!

    4.0 out of 5 stars Un buon manuale

    Acquistato per l'università, il libro è arrivato in ottime condizioni (nonostante fosse di seconda mano). Nel complesso si tratta di un testo ben fatto, molto utile per apprendere le basi della linguistica inglese. Vi sono anche approfondimenti sul linguaggio di alcuni settori specifici (pubblicità, giornali...)

    4.0 out of 5 stars Has a lot a information on English language.
    Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 26 August 2019
    Verified Purchase
    A great book about English language at A level plus: there is a lot of information. There could be more activities (only the first 2 chapters have activities with answers). It is well written, being clear in most areas. The text brings up some questions though, for example, why the slatted shape of the vowels diagram? So you'll need to look elsewhere to be fully knowledgeable. Some examples are fairly dated now, but are still useful. It's a book you can dip in to for reference too.
