First Edition
Hardcover. Condition: Very Good. Dust Jacket Condition: Good. 1st Edition. Oversized hardcover, 152 pages, glossy paper, copiously illustrated, NOT ex-library. A clean and bright copy with unmarked text, free of inscriptions and stamps. Firmly bound, free of readily noticeable internal creases, sharp page corners. Boards with gentle scuffing to edges (spine ends & tips of corners). Dust jacket shows staining to inner panels (the outside is clean, bright, untorn, with light edgewear). -- A comprehensive study of the achievements of Singapore women. From the fight against polygamy in the 50s to the ambivalence felt by working mothers in the 90s, this book cuts right to the core issues, combining hard facts with a sympathetic portrait of the changing needs and status of women in Singapore. The book traces hitherto uncharted territory, the history of the women's movement in Singapore. The movement's rite of passage, despite a few hiccups, is a necessary response to the needs of Singapore women under varying social contexts. A prime mover of the women's movement in the 90s, the Singapore Council of Women's Organisations is a national council committed to the cause of protecting and promoting the rights of Singapore women and propelling the women's movement into the next millennium. -- Contents: New Country; Foreword from The First Lady of the Republic of Singapore; Preface; Singapore Women: Looking Ahead [Moving on to the Next Millennium - Visions of Women Leaders]; Singapore Women Today (1990-1993) [An Overview - Making Their Mark - Call for More Women Politicians - Choices Through Education - Working Women: The Vital Force - Tribute to Professor Chan Heng Chee]; Singapore Women: Looking Back (1950-89) [An Overview - Towards a United Voice - Metamorphosis of Singapore Women - In the Thick of Politics - Laying the Foundation - The Rocky Road to Success - Tributes to Madam Chan Choy Siong and Mrs Shirin Fozdar]; Affiliates of the Singapore Council of Women's Organisations; Bibliography; Index.

Cosmetic wear to binding between the half-title & title pages (all leaves & covers securely bound), else interior is very good: clean and bright with unmarked text, free of inscriptions and stamps.

Published without a dust jacket. -- This book presents an alternative paradigm in understanding and appreciating World Englishes (WEs) in the wake of globalization and its accompanying shifting priorities in many dimensions of modern life, including the emergence of the English language as the dominant lingua franca (ELF). Chew argues that history is a theatre for the realization of lingua francas, offering a model that shows the present as derived from the past and as a bearer of future possibility, the understanding of which is rooted in the understanding of World Englishes and ELF. The book will engage with some of the current theoretical debates in WEs and includes, as a means of fleshing out the model, sociolinguistic case studies of Arabia, China Fujian, and Singapore. -- Contents: 1: Emergent Lingua Francas and World Orders; 2: A Model of Evolving World Orders and Lingua Francas; 3: Liminality; 4: The Last Liminal Period: Emergent Arabic in the Middle Ages; 5: Three Phases of Liminality; 6: Embracing Liminality: A Case Study of Singapore; 7: A Case Study of The Peoples' Republic of China; 8: A Case Study of Southern Min Language; 9: The Place of English in the World Toda; Notes; Bibliography; Index.
