Resources

Apart from the resources of the reader which you will find at the bottom of this page, I also recommend the use of the following lexicons and dictionaries for your course:

Eastwood, John (1995) Oxford Guide to English Grammar (Oxford: Oxford University Press)
(A brilliant handbook of English grammar, very practical).

Spooner, Alan (ed.) (2003) The Little Oxford Thesaurus (Oxford: Oxford University Press)

Wehmeier, Sally (ed.) (2005) Oxford Advanced Learner's Dictionary (Oxford: Oxford University Press)
(A very good dictionary at advanced learner's level, and the accompanying CD is very professional and helpful. Longman Dictionary of Contemporary English is equally useful.)

باطنی، محمد رضا و دستیاران (۱۳۸۰) فرهنگ معاصر انگلیسی-فارسی (تهران: فرهنگ معاصر) ء
(Haghshenas Persian to English dictionary is equally useful and can be used as an alternative. With precise and clear equivalents. The book--like any other English to Persian dictionary--is not an alternative to an English to English dictionary.)

امامی، کریم (۱۳۸۵) فرهنگ معاصر کیمیا (تهران: فرهنگ معاصر) ء
