Abstract:

Corpus Linguistics has revolutionised the world of language study and is an
essential component of work in Applied Linguistics. This book, now in its
second edition, provides a thorough introduction to all the key research
issues in Corpus Linguistics, from the point of view of Applied Linguistics.
The field has progressed a great deal since the first edition, so this edition
has been completely rewritten to reflect these advances, whilst still
maintaining the emphasis on hands-on corpus research of the first edition.  It
includes chapters on qualitative and quantitative research, applications in
language teaching, discourse studies, and beyond. It also includes an
extensive discussion of the place of Corpus Linguistics in linguistic theory,
and provides numerous detailed examples of corpus studies throughout.
Providing an accessible but thorough grounding to the fascinating, fast-moving
field of Corpus Linguistics, this book is essential reading for the student
and the researcher alike.
