Yearbook of Corpus Linguistics and Pragmatics 2014

"The aim of this yearbook is to bring together state-of-the-art research on corpus linguistics and pragmatics ... . I strongly recommend this book to all scholars in the field of pragmatics, as the authors give clear explanations of complex ideas, raise a host of interesting and important issues, and lead readers to think reflectively through their own empirical work. As such, this volume is a valuable source for both research and pedagogical purposes." (Li Xin, Acta Linguistica, Vol. 9 (2), 2015)
