This book offers an interesting insight into an aspect of English phonology which is often under-taught in English language lessons. It examines pronunciation of English connected speech, as opposed to individual sounds. The work gives a solid theoretical background and introduces features such as linking, weak forms, words stress, sentence stress, the peak of prominence or rhythm. It then presents results of a survey into the state of pronunciation teaching in the Czech Republic. A short intensive course aimed at improving students’ speech is a substantial part of the work. The book reads very well. The structure takes the reader on a journey from the outset in a prose that is reader-friendly and academically robust.
