David Crystal''s classic English as a Global Language considers the history, present status and future of the English language, focusing on its role as the leading international language. English has been deemed the most ''successful'' language ever, with 1500 million speakers internationally, presenting a difficult task to those who wish to investigate it in its entirety.

Written in a detailed and fascinating manner, this is a book written by an expert both for specialists in the subject and for general readers interested in the English language. Less
