A fully updated and expanded second edition of this flagship work,
which introduces methodological techniques to carry out analyses of
text varieties, and provides descriptions of the most important
text varieties in English. Part I introduces an analytical
framework for studying registers, genre conventions, and styles,
while Part II provides more detailed corpus-based descriptions of
text varieties in English, including spoken interpersonal
varieties, general and professional written varieties and emerging
electronic varieties. Part III introduces more advanced analytical
approaches and deals with larger theoretical concerns, such as the
relationship between register studies and other sub-disciplines of
linguistics, and practical applications of register analysis. A new
chapter on EAP and ESP has been added, with new sections on the
important differences between academic writing in the humanities
and sciences, and a case study on engineering reports as an ESP
register and genre. Coverage of new electronic registers has been
updated, and a new analysis of hybrid registers has been added.
