Two chapters describe the main foundations of lexical semantics and relevant research and pedagogical studies in vocabulary and lexicography; and a further chapter discusses recent advances in the field of lexis and discourse analysis. There is also a series of specially commissioned articles which investigate the structure and functions of the modern English lexicon in relation to its exploitation for classroom vocabulary teaching.Carter, Ronald A. is the author of 'Vocabulary and Language Teaching' with ISBN 9780582553828 and ISBN 0582553822.
