5.0 out of 5 stars The easy way into corpora, July 18, 2000

By	Gill Philip (Italy) - See all my reviews

This is the nearest thing you'll ever get to an idiot's guide to corpus linguistics. It is a collection of papers which discusses everything it says on the label - corpus, concordance, collocation, and more. Corpora are now very much part of mainstream linguistics; this book opens the door to the 'uninitiated', explaining the fundamentals in the lucid prose that characterises all of Sinclair's writing. Although there have been many advances in the field since this book was first published (nearly a decade ago), the basic principles remain the same. If you've heard of corpus linguistics, but don't know what it is, then this is the book for you.
