Australian-English/ English-Australian Dictionary & Phrasebook

Wherever it is spoken, the English language assumes a regional character; usage, pronunciation, and even grammar reflect the local environment and the people. This book displays the diversity of English as reflected in the Australian variety. It provides terms connected with specific situations, as well as for general conversation. Included are numerous examples of what makes the Australian variety so different from its American counterpart: rhyming slang.

Decisions (Student's Book)

This intermediate level book uses a problem-solving format to develop English language skills. Each of the 16 chapters presents students with relevant, open-ended problems and offers a number of possible solutions. This leads to analysis, discussion and even role-playing. All of these activities are designed to encourage students to contribute at their level of linguistic ability and to practice communicating ideas as clearly as possible. Finally, by allowing for the varying linguistic skills and rates of progress of individual students in a class, it helps the teacher to avoid making rigid linguistic demands on a class of varied ability.

Decisions, Decisions (Student's Book)


This intermediate to advanced level book is designed for classroom use with adult learners of English who have mastered some basic knowledge of grammar and vocabulary. It is also appropriate for students in basic upgrading courses in English, whose knowledge and experience in the working world can be brought to bear on the problems presented in this book. The material is suitable for classes which are either graded or multi-level, because it provides an opportunity for students to practice at the level of their linguistic competence. Decisions, Decisions consists of 17 chapters, each of which presents a problem in anecdotal form. Each chapter contains enough material for a minimum of eight hours of classroom teaching; the length of time will increase with the amount of discussion and the number of tasks assigned to the students. The chapters are not sequenced in order of linguistic difficulty, leaving teachers free to select topics which are of greater interest to a particular group of students at an appropriate time.

English Through Pictures, Book 1 (English Through Pictures Series)

The three pocketbooks comprising the 'English Through Pictures Series' are the remarkable invention of I A Richards and Christine Gibson, who designed them to help the learner speak, read and write English in the quickest and clearest possible way -- through pictures. The authors have made a careful selection of the most widely useful English words, choosing those with the power to define other words, and have put them to work in key patterns that offer the learner the ability to communicate successfully in English. Book 1 contains a vocabulary of 250 such words, with an additional 500 developed in Book 2; these 750 words are then used in Book 3 to build a command of 1000 words which, by their defining power, hold the possibility of understanding as much as another 20,000 words of English. Throughout 'English Through Pictures', responsibility for learning is placed directly on the learner, who from the very start enjoys the ability to put essential words to work creating key sentence patterns where meaning is clearly shown in pictures. These simplified drawings allow learners to focus on the sentence and to enjoy growing confidence as they successfully take control of language, with the workbooks in Books 1 and 2 challenging and reinforcing their growing competence as both speakers and readers. Motivated and inspired, learners will soon find to their delight that fluent communication in English - the common language of today's world - lies well within their grasp. 'English Through Pictures' has already been used successfully by millions of learners in over forty countries.

Functioning in English (Student's Book)

This intermediate level book is a communicatively-based text for use in teaching spoken English to non-native speakers who are adults or young adults. The pedagogic approach is functional/notional, aiming at meeting the communicative needs of the learner. It teaches both the linguistic rules (grammar, phonology) and the sociolinguistic rules (appropriateness, level of formality) through multiple activities divided into ten units for the speaking component of an EFL/ESL course. A detailed teacher's manual is available, which also provides suggestions for writing activities as follow-up work to those units that lend themselves to this.
