'Delightful, thorough and solidly competent..Education Quarterly '...anyone concerned with providing a basic or remediai course for adults, particularly if a language laboratory is available, would do well to look at Success with English.' English Bulletin '... a work informed not merely by theoretical rigour but rich in the results of empiricai research.' Contemporary Review 'Success with English is a course that is certain to be widely used and will doubtless form the basis of E.F.L. teaching in institutions throughoutthe world. It deserves a long and eminent career. The authors would almost certainly prefer to be remembered as teachers rather than theorists, and on the basis of this course, they are likely to succeed.'
