The even-numbered units practise business communication skills, in a nancial context:
telephoning, writing emails, letters and reports, socializing, participating in meetings,
negotiating, and making presentations.
Each unit has a Language focus section looking at a specic language area. Clear examples
are followed by practice exercises to help consolidate learning.
The listening material includes British, American, European and Indian speakers. Tapescripts
of all the listening material are also included at the back of the Students Book.

For denitions, try typing dene followed by a colon and the word you want dened into
Google, for example, dene:bond.
For more detailed but accessible explanations of nancial terms and concepts, I recommend
three books published by The conomist in association with Prole Books, London: Pocket
Accounting (Christopher Nobes), Pocket Finance (Tim Hindle) and Pocket Investor (Philip
Ryland). Most of the other books in this series would also be useful to business English
teachers.
