Stimmen zu »A Practical Handbook of Corpus Linguistics«

“It has been a true pleasure to read, especially thanks to its clear and very thoughtfully planned structure and carefully selected representative studies. Very well-edited and well-organised in its comprehensiveness, this handbook constitutes an invaluable resource both for corpus linguists and other researchers who are starting to familiarise themselves with corpora.” (Leida Maria Monaco, Corpus Pragmatics, Vol. 6, 2022)
