Theresa Lillis is a senior lecturer in language and communication in the Centre for Language and Communications at The Open University, UK.Mary Jane Curry is Assistant Professor of Foreign Language/TESOL Education at the Warner Graduate School of Education at University of Rochester, New York, and founding director of the Warner School’s Writing Support Services. They are both well known and respected by academics in the fields of Academic Literacy, English for Academic Purposes and New Literacy Studies. Their work is also known by practitioners, including teachers, journal editors and editors/translators. They have collaborated on research projects and joint publications. They would build on this successful collaboration, including their familiarity with current policy and publishing debates in both US and UK contexts in writing this book.

"This book takes the exploration of academic writing and publishing in new directions, not least in the array of methodological and theoretical constructs developed in the book. Through their research Lillis and Curry have provided rich perspectives into the ways texts are shaped, who is involved in this process and where this happens." - Suresh Canagarajah, Pennsylvania State University, USA"The readers will be amazed by the amount of data the authors have scrutinized and included into this book. The terminologies used in the book are well explained and easy to read. All in all, this book is considered to be a milestone in the issue of nonnative English writing for publication." – English for Specific Purposes'... a formidable work... This book is a must-read for all who are engaged in preparing students and scholars in non-Anglophone contexts for academic writing and publication for the global research community. On the whole, the findings and conclusions enrich our current knowledge of academic text production in various contexts and it will surely transform understandings about English as a lingua franca in academic contexts.' - Linguist List'This volume fills a gap in the literature by looking at the issue using multiple data sources, including texts, talk around texts, interviews, email discussions, field notes, and documentary data.' - Nur Yigitoglu, TESOL Quarterly'I appreciate the authors’ contribution, argument, and dual perspectives of examining EALF through the lens of macrogeopolitics and of individual scholars. I particularly liked their emphasis on ‘‘text ethnography’’ and sample textual changes because they lend credence to their arguments. I also like the diversity of the participants: The 50 scholars range from junior scholars to established senior researchers.' - Tosh Tachino, Journal of Business and Technical Communication
