[227]-238; SUMMARY; "The Communicative Approach to Language Teaching is a collection of seminal papers explaining the theoretical background to the notional, functional and communicative approaches to English language teaching. The papers are linked by commentaries drawing attention to points of central importance and indicating how the various ideas discussed relate to each other. Organized under four main topics (the linguistics background, the background to teaching, applications and techniques, educational perspectives), they should prove and invaluable aid for the teacher-trainee who wishes to understand the development of the ideas behind current educational theories." - Back cover; CONTENTS; SECTION ONE: The linguistic background
