Description:
So, what have you been reading lately? Such a casual question“when asked of colleagues in English education”often gives way to some very interesting responses. Though this inquiry often yields one or two titles, which evoke nods of instant recognition, the depth of the professional conversation is enhanced when at least one of the titles startles the inquirer. John Harmon, past president of the New York State English Council, provides just such a startling response with his discussion of a book that many readers would consider a text about business and commerce. He calls upon his thirty years in English education, both as a teacher and a curriculum coordinator, linking his main text to a constellation of works, which provide ready recognition to professionals in the field.
