“The author has produced a thorough and fascinating account of his investigation ... . This book fills a very noticeable gap in EAP publications ... . It displays an extensive and impressive breadth of research and study ... . readers gain a very clear and detailed comprehension ... . Overall Hodgetts has produced as extremely detailed account of pronunciation's perceived 'place' on an academic programme." (Gemma Archer, Journal of Second Language Pronunciation, Vol. 7 (3), 2021)“The book has been well edited, and the text has been written in a style accessible to novice readers of the literature of pronunciation research and teaching. To ensure this, the author provides useful explanations and clear examples of subject-specific terminology ... throughout the book. … Hodgett's book is a great contribution to the body of knowledge of pronunciation research and instruction in specific contexts.” (Arizio Sweeting, English Australia Journal, Vol. 37 (2), 2021)
