The monograph "The Evolution of EMI Research in European Higher Education," authored by Molino et al. (۲۰۲۲), is essential for academics concerned with Applied Linguistics, World Englishes, English as an International Language, English as a Lingua Franca, and, more importantly, English-Medium Instruction (EMI). The book meticulously presents cutting-edge research on EMI in European tertiary education over the past two decades. It offers a thorough comparative analysis across five different countries, namely Denmark, Croatia, Italy, the Netherlands, and Spain, in order to identify gaps in our knowledge of pertinent theories, research, and practice. The book compiles the collaborative efforts of the writers on a database of over ۲۰۰ resources that have been annotated and includes a variety of publications in different formats, types, and languages, as well as details on relevant research topics, methods, and conclusions. The nine-chapter book delves into different aspects of EMI implementation, including policies, attitudes, language use, assessment, training, learning outcomes, intercultural communication, and identity. This comprehensive book enables in-depth debates on both the most extensively investigated and the least-explored EMI topics in order to chart a course for future study both in the context of European higher education and beyond. The primary objective of this volume is to adopt a global viewpoint on the various phases of EMI deployment across settings and the development of research interests.
