在这本书中，英语作为通用语的主要支持者之一，詹妮弗·詹金斯探讨了世界各地高等教育中当前的学术英语语言政策。世界各地的大学越来越多地将自己标榜为“国际化”，但它们的英语政策并不一定反映这一点，即使它们的学生群体越来越多样化。虽然有许多人试图从文化的角度探讨这种多样性的影响，但从语言学的角度来看，特别是关于在国际高等教育中哪种英语适合作为通用英语进行交流的影响，却很少有人说。在整本书中，詹金斯考虑了英语语言大学的政策，包括大学管理人员和全球员工的语言态度和意识形态，以及英国设置的国际学生。本书最后考虑了对当前政策和实践的影响，以及为了让大学在语言上与他们所声称的国际地位保持一致，需要做些什么。
In this book, Jennifer Jenkins, one of the leading proponents of English as a Lingua Franca, explores current academic English language policy in higher education around the world. Universities around the world are increasingly presenting themselves as "international" but their English language policies do not necessarily reflect this, even as the diversity of their student bodies grows. While there have been a number of attempts to explore the implications of this diversity from a cultural perspective, little has been said from the linguistic point of view, and in particular, about the implications for what kind(s) of English are appropriate for English lingua franca communication in international higher education. Throughout the book Jenkins considers the policies of English language universities in terms of the language attitudes and ideologies of university management and staff globally, and of international students in a UK setting. The book concludes by considering the implications for current policies and practices, and what is needed in order for universities to bring themselves in line linguistically with the international status they claim.
