Ideal for a variety of applied linguistics courses as well as for those studying corpus linguistics.' - Randi Reppen, Northern Arizona University, USA 'Anderson & Corbett do an impressive job of addressing the niceties of corpus literacy for an extremely wide audience, without compromising on rigour.
