[Corpora-List] Research on book reviews

[Xu Jiajin]

Hi Geoffrey and Alon,

I got a copy of Academic Discourse Across Disciplines, edited by Ken Hyland
and Marina Bondi (2006), on my book shelf, which has some updates on the
genre structure of academic book reviews. I don't know whether that will be
of some help.

Best,
Jiajin
