Abstract:

Routledge Introductions to Applied Linguistics consists of introductory level 
textbooks covering the core topics in Applied Linguistics, designed for those 
entering postgraduate studies and language professionals returning to 
academic study. The books take an innovative "practice to theory" approach, 
with a 'back to front' structure which takes the reader from real life problems 
and issues in the field, then enters into a discussion of intervention and how 
to engage with these concerns. The final section concludes by tying the 
practical issues to theoretical foundations. Additional features include tasks 
with commentaries, a glossary of key terms, and an annotated further reading 
section.

Corpus linguistics is a key area of applied linguistics and one of the most 
rapidly developing. Winnie Cheng's practical approach guides readers in 
acquiring the relevant knowledge and theories to enable the analysis, 
explanation and interpretation of language using corpus methods. 

Throughout the book practical classroom examples, concordance based 
analyses and tasks such as designing and conducting mini-projects are used 
to connect and explain the conceptual and practical aspects of corpus 
linguistics. 

Exploring Corpus Linguistics is an essential textbook for post-
graduate/graduate students new to the field and for advanced undergraduates 
studying English Language and Applied Linguistics.
