Zusammenfassung:Can learners of English choose their own materials to learn from? Should they do so? English in Deprived Circumstances: Maximising Learner Autonomy is a narrative of how learners learn when they take charge of what they read, listen to or write.

Key issues discussed:- Autonomy and authenticity in language learning- What is authentic for deprived learners?- Emergent features of learner-chosen texts- Assessment of acquisition- A new approach to the choice of materials
