Bringing together a team of leading experts, this uniquely designed book surveys and compares an array of methods and approaches in corpus linguistic research to stimulate critical discussion of recent developments. This timely volume will be essential reading for linguists interested in advanced corpus linguistic approaches to variation and change.
