The book explores the inherent contradiction in language and culture learning, highlighting how language embodies the thoughts, values, and worldview of its speakers. It critiques the divide in educational settings where language instruction focuses on skills and knowledge, while cultural learning is treated as an abstract concept. By addressing this split, the book aims to integrate cultural understanding into language pedagogy, emphasizing the importance of teaching both aspects together for a more holistic learning experience.
