Review :
'I like Michael Swan's style and his selection of passages. In fact I think the texts he has chosen form one of the most interesting collections I have come across in a book of this type … I think this is a book that students and teachers will enjoy using.' ARELS Journal '… this is a splendid practice book at an advanced level.' English Language Teaching Journal
