The book is of tremendous value to researchers of literacy (including graduate students), to academics involved in training literacy specialists, and to teachers of school-level and specialized literacies.

Product Description

' Local Literacies presents complex ideas, mixing debates from linguistics, social history and cultural studies; yet it is written with enviable clarity ...Anyone interested in literacy education needs to read this book.' - Jane Mace, South Bank University
