"""Expertly edited by two key figures in the field, this fascinating volume offers wide-ranging insights into the ever-expanding use of English-medium education in Asia. Intent on highlighting the darker side of EMI, the volume raises critical questions and is a must-read for anyone wishing to understand how education in English reflects – and sometimes exacerbates – existing inequalities among languages and speakers."" - Anna Kristina Hultgren, Professor of Sociolinguistics and Applied Linguistics and UKRI Future Leaders Fellow, The Open University, United Kingdom ""Pramod K. Sah and Fan Fang have put together the latest policy debate, research agenda and practical cases on the growing phenomenon of English-medium instruction in multilingual Asian Universities. This edited book provides a comprehensive, in-depth understanding of the expansion of EMI in over 13 Asian contexts, with critical reflections on various topics, serving as an essential reference to students, teachers, researchers, and practitioners."" - Jack Pun, Assistant Professor, Department of English, City University of Hong Kong, Hong Kong SAR, China"
