Rezensionen
"This textbook makes Practical Corpus Linguistics accessible to everyone. The focus on methodological and technical aspects and the instructive dimension of the book - nothing is considered obvious or already known - make it very useful to any corpus linguist aiming at a better understanding of his/her data...Through the various exercises, it is very easy to test one's comprehension and the reader gradually gains confidence. The educational, sometimes entertaining tone as well as the glossary also contribute to gradually enhance the reader's learning capacities in a field in which many feel insecure...It should accompany scholars at the beginning of any research to raise awareness about technical issues that are too often overlooked..."
