"An ethnography of students and teachers at private English language schools in the northeastern Chinese city of Shenyang, this book examines how foreign languages have been incorporated into everyday speech practices and what it means to speak English in China today"--
This book begins with Thought No. 1668, following on from the numbering in the author's first book in the series. It continues in new directions with a wide variety of different topics. The author's concept of 'PHILOSOBIOGRAPHY' (which includes PHILOSOAUTOBIOGRAPHY) is introduced and illustrated- often with actual law suits in which he was involved in English courts. The legal trials, and some persistent events that occurred while living in a council house in a mismanaged south London borough, are revealed from personal experience. Philosophy may be inherent in PHILOSOBIOGRAPHY or be developed from it. The author wants this to become a part of philosophy. This philosophy is incorporated into everyday life. The author maintains that philosophy is for ordinary people- not professional philosophers only- and that everyone can and should be engaged in it and in its development.
