Reviews / Votes
"This book is for people who want to get some computing done- particularly linguists, behavioral scientists, and scholarsin the humanities. I plan to recommend it to my linguisticsstudents who want to learn about computer programming." MichaelA. Covington, Artificial Intelligence Center, University ofGeorgia "Here finally is an introductory Java programming book thatreally enables anyone interested in working with language on acomputer to learn how to do it. You don't have to be a'language researcher' to use this book - all you needis an interest in language and a willingness to learn the craft ofobject-oriented programming." D. Terence Langendoen, Universityof Arizona "Surprisingly readable...should be on the bookshelf ofany discourse analysist even thinking about tinkering with usingcomputers to automate some portion of their data analysis...structured and written for maximum learning and understanding ofthe relevance of different programming features for a linguist."Discourse StudiesMore details
