English for Political Science - Level C1+

The book is intended for use by Cl+ users of the English language and in this case University students. It may be assumed that the students will have the background knowledge of the subject Political Science before they use this book. The book is intended as a course book giving them, the students, practice in using all aspects of the English language, Speaking, Use of English, Reading, Listening and Writing.

The purpose of the book from the student perspective should be a tool which they can use to enhance their learning experience. This I believe is something that the writer tried to do. Students need to have a book that is useful in furthering their learning needs in that it provides them with suitable exercises at the appropriate level. Challenging in that the exercises are not considered to be below the target language level. Interesting in that they can actually learn something new from using the book. As this book is aimed at Cl+ level students the book has to be careful not to be merely a grammar book as per B1 level. The book has to provide specialise language practice as it is in the area of ESP. Most of all the book should not be boring.
