HOW TO USE stream.ifolder.ru Currently my PM box is full of strange messages. Here is a typical piece of that kind of stuff: "i would like to download the file from http://stream.ifolder.ru/but i do not speak

Well, I can only speculate what could have made the authors decide on selecting me as an addressee of their requests... However, I decided to give a detailed reply here. Nocommand of Russian? No idea of how to use stream.ifolder.ru? Totally baffled?

"English for scientific purposes" is a new type of reference book aimed at providing multifaceted support to non-English-speaking scientists in writing their papers in English. Compiled from extensive original sources, the book systematically presents a wide range of expressions, word combinations, phrases, speech patterns and examples characteristic of the English academic style, allowing users to express their ideas clearly and in a simple straightforward way so as to form a unified whole - an abstract, report, article, review, or any other publication.
Understanding EinsteinBy Bertrand Russell Narrated by Sir Derek Jacobi
Ask a dozen people to name a genius and the odds are that ‘Einstein’ will spring to their lips. Ask them the meaning of ‘relativity’ and few of them will be able to tell you what it is. The basic principles of relativity have not changed since Bertrand Russell first published his lucid guide for the general reader. The ABC of Relativity is Bertrand Russell’s most brilliant work of scientific popularisation. With marvellous lucidity he steers the reader who has no knowledge of maths or physics through the subtleties of Einstein’s thinking. In easy, assimilable steps, he explains the theories of special and general relativity and describes their practical application to, amongst much else, discoveries about gravitation and the invention of the hydrogen bomb. ‘An ideal introduction to the theories of special and general relativity.’ –Nature

'How to Teach Grammar' by Scott Thornbury
A guide for teachers on how to develop or enhance their grammar-teaching skills. The early part of the book considers such issues as the nature of grammar and the reasons for teaching it. Subsequent chapters explore both inductive and deductive approaches to grammar. The book also explores ways of practising a variety of grammar topics, methods of dealing with grammatical errors in students' work, and ways of integrating grammar instruction into different general methodologies, such as communicative language learning and task-based learning. Each chapter contains a bank of photocopiable tasks. Readers can work through this "Task File" on their own, or it can be used by a trainer working with trainee teachers. Thanks go to user erkan ugur for providing this book!
