Critically assessing EFL textbooks

Halliday's (1973) theory of language (language should be used for communicating: instruction, regulatory, interactional, personal, heuristic, imaginative, and representational) encourages research and dialog about how teachers can critically look at textbooks in the Gulf region which should prepare higher education learners for the global market.
