Abstract:

This volume presents the science review article as an opportune genre for 
introducing rhetorical diversity into scientific communities. First, it discusses 
the theoretical issues involved in applying the notion of a discourse 
community to that of an international science discourse community and 
examines the practical issues faced by writers who must use a language 
system that is not their mother tongue in order to become active 
participants. The review article is argued to be important in shaping the 
views of scientific discourse communities. Next, based on specialist 
informant and linguistic findings, review articles are classified into four 
different types according to their focus: history, status quo, theory/model or 
issue. Finally, practical suggestions for teaching how to write a review article 
are offered based on a framework of Moves and Steps, which can be 
expanded to the teaching of other genres.

Contents: 

Discourse communities and scientific genres 
The science review article and its place in the discourse community 
Construction of knowledge 
English for specific purposes 
Genre analysis 
Corpus linguistics.
