English For The Pacific

REACHING Structural English, by G. Pittman, offers a simple yet comprehensive analysis of English for those who will teach it as a foreign language. It is presented, therefore, from the point of view of its structure rather than its grammar.
Simple sentence patterns are taken and from these increasingly complex ones are built up. The manual is designed particularly for teachers in the Pacific area; however, as a clear, up-to-date exposition of what con stitutes the English language, the book would interest all linguists.— JS.
