reviewed The Cambridge Encyclopedia of the English Language on October 07, 2013 The Cambridge Encyclopedia of the English Language
(I wrote this review at work for learners of English, so I thought I'd add it here too.)
Organized by topic and full of interesting images and diagrams, The Cambridge Encyclopedia of the English Language is exactly what your coffee table has been missing. Most topics are covered in just two pages, so they can be read in small bits. You can really open it up to any page and find something interesting. Due to its value for occasional engaging reading, I would recommend it for intermediate learners and up, but even beginners can enjoy many aspects of the book, such as the map of World Englishes.
David Crystal
With over 100 published books, linguistics professor David Crystal is probably the most prolific writer on language and, especially, the English language. He has written on the history of English, grammar, the language of texting and much more. Though many of his books are academic in nature, a lot of them are geared toward the interested layman.
