  • Description: Peter Trudgill & Jean Hannah, International English: A guide to varieties of Standard English. 4th ed. London: Arnold; New York: Oxford University Press, 2002. Pp. i–xv, 1–153. Pb $22.95. This book provides a delightful survey of the global variety of pronunciation and usage of English as an educated standard. It focuses on the phonetics of the various Englishes, especially on the vowels, where so much of the variability resides, and on differences in usage, lexical and syntactic as well as orthographic. Although this small volume necessarily deals with most topics briefly, it includes a wealth of detail.
