English in Business: Book 2 By R. S. de Schiffrin and B. A. Uteda and E. J. Golstein

ENGLISH IN BUSINESS is a two book English Course for students specialising in commerce and will be of particular value to students who have completed about three years study of the language. The introductory section of Book 2 provides the teacher with revision work and sets the standard for the book. The book itself is divided into twenty Units with a revision lesson and test after every five. The Units introduce new lexical and grammatical items; the revision lessons link together the material learned, which can then be tested. New vocabulary is listed on each page along with its phonetic transcription and stress. Although the course is concerned with teaching the skills and terminology required by a commercial student it is based on the assumption that the acquisition of primary linguistic skills must be the basis of such a book. In this way, the student is provided with a fundamental knowledge of English as well as with a comprehensive knowledge of commercial techniques. Amongst the topics covered are economic and commercial practice, business letters and documents.
