'SWEEPINGLY LEARNED AND ENGAGINGLY GARRULOUS . . . Sunday Times 'A MUCH-NEEDED CHALLENGE TO CONVENTIONAL WISDOM' Guardian IN THE TWENTY-FIRST CENTURY, CAN WE REALLY TAKE THE DOMINANCE OF ENGLISH FOR GRANTED? In their time, Greek, Latin, Arabic, Sanskrit and Persian have each been world languages, sweeping the globe for centuries at a time.

'A linguist of astonishing voracity . . . the predictions are striking' ECONOMIST 'The Last Lingua Franca beautifully ties together a diverse and ambitious range of themes, which will offer something new to all readers.
