| 520 ## - SUMMARY, ETC. | |
| Summary, etc. | Using easy-to-understand, non-technical language, this book covers basic terminology, background and the OE vocabulary students need to know. The text is divided into sections which each have two parts on the topic involved, one on history and culture, and one on language. Importantly, there are exercises for students to do and these appear in each section along with 'guiding' comments to help students in class and self-study. In addition, there is a discussion topic in each section. |
