This book argues that the English language industry has become a swirling, beguiling monster, unashamedly intent on challenging local lingua-diversity and threatening individual identities. It brings together linguists, literary figures and teaching professionals in a wide-ranging exposé of this enormous Hydra in action on four continents.
