Corpus Linguistics for Health Communication provides an accessible
and practical introduction to the use of corpus linguistic methods
to analyse health-related language use across various contexts and
genres. Offering a critical review of the field, discussion of
extended case studies, and practical exercises based on spoken,
written and digital language data, this book: ● introduces the
fields of health communication and corpus linguistics, and
critically reviews cutting-edge studies in the burgeoning area of
corpus-based health communication; ● describes the processes
involved in planning a corpus linguistic study of health
communication, including designing and building a corpus, selecting
tools, and implementing techniques of analysis; ● demonstrates
how corpus linguistic methods can - and have - been applied to the
study of spoken, written and digital health communication, offering
critical reflections and suggesting areas for future development.
Corpus Linguistics for Health Communication is essential reading
for those working at the interface of corpus linguistics and health
communication. Both those with a little or a lot of experience in
either field will find value in its pages.
