About the Author :
Vijay Bhatia is an Adjunct Professor in Macquarie University and University of Malaya.He is author of Analysing Genre: Language Use in Professional Settings (1993) and Worlds of Written Discourse: A Genre-based View (2004). Stephen Bremner is an Associate Professor in the Department of English at City University of Hong Kong. His main research interests are workplace writing, and the ways in which students make the transition from the academy to the workplace.

Review :
'A handbook like this is long overdue. Professional communication, especially from the workplace vantage point, has long been overshadowed by interest in exclusively academic communication. Bhatia and Bremner have brought together a host of specialists in English for specific purposes, genre analysis, business communication and other related areas, as well as representatives of such fields as banking and law, all of whom contribute to what becomes, in effect, a compelling argument for learning more about written, spoken, and multimodal communication in professional communities.' Diane Belcher, Georgia State University, USA
