'In recent years the teaching of English as a Medium of Instruction has become one of the 'hot' issues in the field of global education. Often accused of being a new form of colonialism, it is only by integrating EMI within a paradigm that also includes translanguaging and the use of English as a Lingua Franca that respect for native languages and cultures can effectively be maintained worldwide. The volume edited by Di Sabato and Hughes competently illustrates these highly topical concerns'. Paolo Balboni, Universita Ca' Foscari, Italy 'If ever we needed a time to find ways of understanding each other that go above and beyond mere linguacultural differences, that time is now. Language education is critical for this and must adapt to our superdiverse world. The contributions in this wonderful volume help show the way'. Andy Kirkpatrick, Professor Emeritus, Griffith University, Brisbane, Australia.
