Teaching Grammar Creatively is a practical new resource book that offers a variety of lessons and activities for everyday use in English language classes. It aims to stimulate students' imagination, humour and creativity and increase the effectiveness of grammar practice. The book offers more than 50 complete lessons covering a wide range of grammar structures, learner levels, and age groups. Each lesson is divided into two main sections: Language Awareness Activities and Creative Grammar Practice. The Language Awareness Activities are designed to introduce and provide initial practice of items that may still be unfamiliar to students. The Creative Grammar Practice section provides ideas for a deeper and more personalised familiarisation with these items, always with an element of individual creativity. Each lesson ends with the creation of a learner text — a permanent and original record of the grammar, in the form of a story or a poem for example.

This fully-revised edition of the classic elementary pronunciation course is now accompanied by 3 Audio CDs and is suitable for both self-study and classroom use. This is a revised and updated edition of the classic pronunciation title, 'Tree or Three?'. This new edition retains many of the features that make the original edition so popular. In particular, the overall simplicity of the text and straightforward syllabus with an emphasis on minimal pairs, that makes the subject of pronunciation so accessible has been retained. Although the artwork remains simple, this new edition is in full colour to make the material more user-friendly. Still ideal for classroom use, the new edition is also more suitable for learners working on their own (at home or in self-access centres), as clearer rubrics for exercises have been included together with better overall navigation and a clear answer key.

Why did Western European states agree to the enlargement of the EU and NATO? Frank Schimmelfennig analyzes the history of the enlargement process and develops a theoretical approach of ‘rhetorical action’ to explain why it occurred. While rationalist theory explains the willingness of East European states to join the NATO and EU, it does not explain why member states decided to admit them. Using original data, Schimmelfennig shows that expansion to the East can be understood in terms of liberal democratic community building. Drawing on the works of Jon Elster and Erving Goffman, he demonstrates that the decision to expand was the result of rhetorical action. Candidates and their supporters used arguments based on collective identity, norms and values of the Western community to shame opponents into acquiescing to enlargement. This landmark book makes an enormous contribution to theory in international relations and to the study of European politics. • Offers a comprehensive analysis of one of the defining processes of post-Cold War European politics: Eastern enlargement • It develops a unique theoretical approach to the analysis of international institutions and negotiations — rhetorical action • It engages in the major current debate in the field of International Relations (rationalism versus constructivism) and offers a synthetic approach to the study of international institutions

Academic Encounters: American Studies uses a sustained-content approach to help students develop the skills they need to meet the demands of academic courses. The text engages students with academic readings, photos, graphs, and charts on stimulating topics from the field of American Studies that deal with important events and ideas in American history and culture that are relevant to American life today. Topics include government, race relations, the history of U.S. immigration, jazz and blues, movies, hip-hop, and the interplay of American culture and cultures from around the world. Exercises that accompany the lessons develop important reading skills such as reading for detail, skimming, reading critically, and applying what you have read. Students also learn study skills such as highlighting, note taking, and preparing for a quiz. Each chapter ends with a guided academic writing assignment. Tasks to build vocabulary and academic writing skills occur throughout the book. Academic Listening Encounters: American Studies is a listening, note-taking, and discussion text that focuses on the same content area as the reading, study-skills, and writing book described above. The listening book with student's Audio CD, as well as the complete audio program for the listening book, are both available separately for purchase. The reading book and the listening book may each be used independently or they may be used together to form an integrated four-skills course.

Active Listening, Second edition is grounded in the theory that learners are more successful listeners when they activate their prior knowledge of a topic. Through a careful balance of activities, students learn to listen for main ideas, to listen for details, to listen and make inferences — and finally to progress from listening to personalized speaking. Student's Book 2 is intended for low-intermediate to intermediate students. The Student's Book offers 16 task-based units, each built around an engaging topic. Through a careful balance of activities, students learn to listen for main ideas, to listen for details and to listen and make inferences. Prelistening schema-building activities help students build vocabulary, and listen-again activities provide additional skills practice. A full page of optional speaking activities with pronunciation practice is provided in each unit. Expansion units, with authentic student interviews, offer rich cultural material and provide review. A free self-study audio CD is also included in every student's book.
