    'If all such books were as thought-provoking and imaginative at finding the spaces in which to confront the issues, we would have little to fear. I will certainly be recommending it to my students next year.' - Bethan Marshall, Times Educational Supplement Curriculum Special

    'The writing team can be congratulated on producing a book that...offers sound and intelligent advice to trainee teachers ... the strength of the book is that it certainly will help student teachers in a pragmatic sense to meet the standards but will also help them to be interesting and creative English teachers.' - Andrew Goodwyn, Educational Review
