Reviews

“This volume is of great significance in promoting the development of EMI theory and practice in universities. … this is a book suitable for graduate students with a certain discipline foundation and researchers or scholars in EMI; pre-service and in-service teachers and school administrators can also learn something to improve their level. Its innovative content and typical cases in the book are the reasons why it should be recommended.” (Jingjing Zhang, Journal of Higher Education Policy and Management, Vol. 44 (1), 2022)
