505 _aConclusion
520 _a"In this book Professor Widdowson provides a timely critical review of the most prominent issues in language teaching today. Part 1 presents the case for the relevance of theoretical inquiry to classroom practice. Parts 2 and 3 serve to demonstrate this relevance by showing how different perspectives on linguistic description lead to different approaches to the teaching of language. At a time of wide-ranging debate about language teaching, particularly in the broader contexts of educational principle and policy, the force and authority of Professor Widdowson's arguments will be welcomed by all those concerned to uphold professional standards in language teaching and teacher education."
