摘要
This study attempts to investigate the "cultural representation" in ESL textbooks. For analysis, Byrem (1993) model has been used in this study. A comparison has been made of all these books to show that these books have their central consideration in representing the foreign culture; except PTB, all the books ignore to give the local flavour of culture in books for Pakistani students. This study enlightens the societal and academic problems which take place in Pakistani educational scenario. It concludes with some suggestions, and by adopting them, educationists can overwhelm these problems.
