A truly contextualized presentation of the grammar, structure and style of Scientific/Technical English. Scientific English structure and style is designed for adult learners who need to master the linguistic features characterizing EST, in order to handle English specific to their field of study or profession.

All examples and exercise work are presented in Civil Engineering context. Many sections within the book use authentic material taken from university textbooks, journal articles, instruction manuals, and advertisements. This contextualized approach enables learners to concentrate on the grammar/structure and does not mislead them through use of unfamiliar contexts.
