Introducing English Linguistics (Cambridge Introductions to Language and Linguistics) 1st Edition

Excellent course text for applied linguistics or English linguistics.

This book is well organized and comprehensive as an introduction to this field. It will suit the purposes of someone who seeks a well-grounded foundation in linguistics, even if s/he doesn't want to do further study. It also serves the purpose of the degree-seeking student who may have no background in the field. I read it carefully, took notes, and feel better prepared to succeed in the upcoming coursework which will address this material in greater depth.The writing is accessible while still assuming a college-level knowledge of the concepts.

Good condition, appreciated
