  Aimed at all those who are taking English degrees or teaching them, English in Practice is a reflective overview of the discipline's core: the close reading of texts, contexts and 'intertexts'. The book works through a series of fully developed examples rather than abstract exposition, encouraging student readers to think for themselves.
