Abstract:

Ken Hyland provides an authoritative discussion of key aspects of writing for academic publication. Exploring some of the biggest issues and challenges in academic publishing, the author discusses the impact of English as a global academic language; the growth of the assessment culture surrounding publication; the practices of knowledge construction at institutional and local levels, and the emergence of Open Access and social media publishing.

As well as outlining implications for pedagogy in the English-language classroom, Hyland fully evaluates the social practices surrounding knowledge creation and the political implications of global publishing.
