David Crystal's informative account of the rise of English as a

global language explores the history, current status and potential

of English as the international language of communication. This new

edition of his classic work includes additional sections on the

future of English as a world language, English on the Internet, and

the possibility of an English "family" of languages. Footnotes, new

tables, and a comprehensive bibliography reflect the expanded scope

of the revised edition. An internationally renowned scholar in the

field of language and linguistics, David Crystal received an Order

of the British Empire in 1995 for his services to the English

language. He is the author of several books with Cambridge,

including Language and the Internet (2001), Language Death (2000),

English as a Global Language (1997), Cambridge Encyclopedia of

Language (1997), and Cambridge Encyclopedia of the English Language

(1995) as well as Words on Words (University of Chicago, 2000).
