Vol. 4 Issue 50 – Book Review – 'English Language Teaching in India: The Shifting Paradigms' by S P Dhanavel
This book was written essentially to handle the concept of ‘choice’ and its effect on speakers’ linguistic determination. It elaborates upon the perception that language adoption is related to human society and its members and is influenced by space, time variation, age, gender and culture. The author has exhibited the interconnection of the choice of language with how, what, and when people would speak. In addition, it aims to shed light on how, within the environments and communities in which people are living, ‘societal factors’ integrate unconsciously, sometimes compulsorily, with their original language, as they are living in a single unified circle and each factor can affect the other.
