Bulger, Anthony: - Born in England, the author has lived and worked in France for more than 30 years. Trained as a journalist and then as a language teacher, he directed an adult education centre in Paris, coordinated and trained teaching teams for a major educational holiday company, and taught at the translation and interpretation school of Paris University. He used to run a Paris-based translation company and is now a full-time writer. Tony has written a dozen books, most of them published by Assimil, to share his love of languages and their origins. His philosophy? Language learning is not only an intellectual exercise but also, and most importantly, a source of enjoyment and cultural enrichment.
