*Task-Based Language Teaching* by Daniel O. Jackson is a comprehensive guide to task-based language teaching (TBLT) published by Cambridge University Press in 2022. The book aims to broaden the accessibility of TBLT for language instructors, teacher educators, and other interested parties by providing practical guidance and a cognitive-interactionist perspective on language learning. It is structured into six sections: an introduction to TBLT, the task-based curriculum, task-based approaches in context, research into TBLT, teachers and tasks, and an epilogue on the potential of TBLT. The first section introduces key concepts and definitions, such as pedagogic tasks, task-as-workplan, and task-in-process. It also presents task types and design features, using visual examples to illustrate these concepts. The second section outlines the stages of building a strong TBLT curriculum, distinguishing it from traditional approaches and providing examples from various educational settings. The third section contextualizes TBLT in diverse local environments, showcasing how tasks are adapted to different learner demographics and languages. The fourth section reviews empirical studies on TBLT, focusing on design, mode, preparation, interaction, and repetition. It evaluates studies using criteria for establishing a researched pedagogy. The fifth section explores teachers' experiences with TBLT, emphasizing their role in task implementation and agency. The epilogue discusses the transformative purposes of TBLT, including enriching classrooms, transforming language programs, and empowering learners. The book is praised for its accessible and well-structured approach, providing practical resources and up-to-date empirical evidence. However, it is noted that the book may be less suitable for novice teachers due to its focus on more experienced practitioners. Overall, *Task-Based Language Teaching* is a valuable resource for language educators and teacher trainers, offering a concise and practical overview of TBLT.*Task-Based Language Teaching* by Daniel O.
