Introduction to Social Foundations of Language Education: Working Towards Equity and Inclusion, authored by Ekaterina Moore and Jenifer Crawford, is a pivotal work for students in language education and TESOL programs. The book delves into the interplay between language education, social dynamics, and the principles of equity and inclusion.
