2. English for Science and Technology : A Discourse Approach (Cambridge Language Teaching Library) by Louis Trimble, Michael Swan (Editor), Paperback: 192 pages, Publisher: Cambridge University Press
Louis Trimble has been involved for nearly 20 years in
the development of English for science and technology (EST),
and in this book he describes the approach which he and
others have developed. It starts from the premise that
in order to understand the written EST found in
technical manuals, textbooks, papers etc., it is first
necessary to have an understanding of the discourse
structure of these texts. Here he gives a very full
description, with many examples, of the various
significant features of EST discourse, such as types of
classification, definition, instruction etc. The book
also describes the 'individualising process' whereby
students bring their own specialised material into the
course; and the last chapter, demonstrates how a
particular course can be organised and structured.
