Julian Edge Poradie kníh (chronologicky)
Autor sa od roku 1969 venuje výučbe angličtiny ako cudzieho jazyka (TESOL) a čoraz viac sa zapája do vzdelávania učiteľov v tejto oblasti. Fascinuje ho interakcia medzi osobným a profesijným rozvojom a spôsob, akým sa individuálny rozvoj najlepšie dosahuje v sociálnej interakcii. Jeho písanie sa posunulo od akademickej prózy k zdieľaniu skúseností a spoločnému úsiliu o pochopenie ich významu. Vo svojej práci skúma vzdelávanie učiteľov TESOL, pričom využíva reinterpretácie mýtov a úryvkov zo svojich vlastných skúseností na načrtnutie obrazu odboru, ako ho formoval.
