Abstract	This chapter presents the process and rationale of constructing English language teaching (ELT) materials that are pedagogically, morally, culturally, and ideologically meaningful for the intended learners from the perspective of the writers of a tertiary English as a foreign language (EFL) textbook series published in China. To reveal how educational beliefs, cultural values, moral views, and ideologies influence goal setting, material selection, and task designing, this chapter gives content analysis of qualitative data including meeting memos, textbook writers' notes, chief editors' comments produced during the three-year textbook writing process, and interviews with the writing team. This study reveals the writing team's external and internal constraints and struggles as well as their agentic intentions and attempts. It can be seen as an exemplary case for how tertiary English textbooks are domestically written in an Asian country, and shed light on the complexity surrounding the incorporation of values in ELT materials.
