Abstract:

The authoritative general introduction to cognitive linguistics

Vyvyan Evans covers all aspects of the relationship between language and mind,
as well as applications and extensions of cognitive linguistics to the study
of text, literature, discourse, and society. 

Bursting with new content and presented in a new 5-part structure, the book
has been fully revised and extensively updated throughout to deliver the
complete guide to the cognitive linguistic enterprise. Brand new additions
include: an innovative new chapter exploring key topics in language science, a
new chapter introducing the range of research methods and approaches for
studying human language, mind and behaviour and new chapters exploring areas
such as access semantics and meaning construction, conceptual structure, the
nature of space, time, gesture and sign language. 

Key features include:

* 30 fully revised chapters in five coherent parts, including 7 entirely new
chapters 

* Discussion questions and annotated reading list at the end of each chapter

* Critical evaluation and reflection on influential cognitive linguistic
theories, and how they compare to formal approaches in linguistics and
cognitive science

* Over 200 tables and figures to clearly demonstrate key concepts, data and
ideas

* An online resource with additional exercises:
