Abstract:

English in academic and professional settings has received great attention 
over the last 50 years, as its use has become a key asset for anyone 
interested in improving his/her chances of communicating internationally. 
However, it still offers rich opportunities for teachers and researchers working 
on English in specific settings. The aim of English for Professional and 
Academic Purposes is to offer an overview of several topics within the 
field of discourse analysis applied to English in academic and professional 
domains. The book compiles contributions from different origins, ranging from 
Japan to the USA and several European countries, and covers English as a 
native, second, foreign and international language. It also deals with various 
specialities, including academic writing, business discourse or English for 
medicine, nursing, maritime industry and science and engineering. This 
volume is divided into three sections: Discourse Analysis of English for 
Academic Purposes, Professional English and EPAP Pedagogy, since it was 
conceived as a contribution to the research on how English is analysed as 
both the discourse of and for effective communication in academic and 
professional settings, and how it can be applied to teaching. This manuscript 
offers some fresh insights for those involved or interested in this field of 
expertise, in an attempt to shed some light on its latest innovations.
