Why don't you give exact delivery time?
Delivery time is estimated on our previous experiences. We give estimations only, because we order from outside Hungary, and the delivery time mainly depends on how quickly the publisher supplies the book. Faster or slower deliveries both happen, but we do our best to supply as quickly as possible.

MoreLong description:
Genre analysis has become a key approach within the field of English for Specific Purposes and helps students understand particular language use patterns in target contexts.
Introducing Genre and English for Specific Purposes provides an overview of how genre has been conceptualized and applied in ESP, as well as the features that distinguish ESP genre research and teaching from those of other genre schools. The macro and micro aspects of ESP genre-based pedagogy are also analysed and include: different possibilities for planning and designing an ESP genre-based course; the concrete, micro aspects of materials creation; and how genres can be learned through play.
Introducing Genre and English for Specific Purposes is essential reading for students and pre-service teachers who are studying Genre, English for Specific Purposes or language teaching methodologies.
"Hyon's book captures the breadth and depth of genre theory in ESP, drawing on the most recent publications in the field. Due to the inclusion of examples of teaching activities, the book would be useful for university students and preservice teachers who are studying genre, ESP and language teaching methodologies. I would also recommend this book to those who are familiar with genre studies in ESP because it charts the development of this theory over the last 50 years. The book's accessibility also makes it excellent reading for genre theorists from other traditions who would like to explore genre in the ESP tradition."
