520 3 _a"H. G. Widdowson has played an important and pioneering role in the development of communicative language teaching theory. This book develops a rational approach to the teaching of language as communication based on a careful consideration of the nature of language and of the language user's activities. It provides a lucid guide through a subject which is often confused and misrepresented, while providing a stimulus to all language teachers to investigate the ideas that informs their own practices."
