Кажется, этой книги здесь еще не было. Во всяком случае, поиск тут ее не опознал ;-) Учебник посвящен извечной проблеме - временам и формам глагола. А именно, когда и в какой ситуации следует употреблять ту или иную форму. Книжка неплохая, примеры хорошие. Рекомендуется всем, кто изучает английский язык и тем, кто обучает языку. Книжка преследует следующие цели:
1. to present clear time lines for each tense 2. to introduce categories of verbs which act in certain ways: punctual verbs, durative verbs, and non-continuous verbs 3. to teach the proper use of time markers to show points in time, frequency, and duration for each tense.
