Recensioner i media

Bilingual Education: Southeast Asian Perspectives is a refreshingly welcome text by two experts on bilingual education and English language teaching in international contexts whose scholarship is matched by their passion for culturally relevant approaches to bilingual education. Their focus on Hong Kong, Malaysia, and Singapore is significant, as each of these areas is faced with major challenges to provide equitable education for their respective linguistically diverse populations. Angel Lin and Evelyn Man's careful analysis is contextually grounded as it steps away from prescriptive remedies. Their work informs policy and practice within local contexts against the pressures of nationalism and globalization. This text will be of value to both scholars and serious students as it challenges dominant assumptions about bilingual education within real world contexts. -- Terrence G. Wiley, Arizona State University
