"...the book has been compiled with a lot of thought, covering a large number of different topic area within corpus linguistics. The editors' introductions to each chapter are very useful as they do not only briefly summarize the chapter but also put it into context for the readers. All chapters are relatively short so that they are not overwhelming for a reader new to the area and all were selected for their importance to the field of corpus linguistics. '...the book is an extremely valuable resource to own, not only for corpus linguists as reference, but also for those newly interested in the area to understand the wider field of corpus linguistics as well as the historical development that it has undergone.' Ute Knoch, University of Auckland, New Zealand. Review on LinguistList."
