Using a wide range of professional genres such as research papers,
business reports, performance commentaries, guidebooks and legal
documents, this study focuses on the discourse of professional
writing, employing analytic paradigms from systemic-functional
linguistics, pragmatics, text analysis, sociology and
anthropological linguistics. Kenneth Kong argues that while
professions use different sets of practices, their use of language
displays many universals. This is demonstrated through the analysis
of data from a broad cross-section of professional settings such as
medicine, law, business, mass media and engineering. This
examination of professional discourse, and its important role in
society, will be of interest to researchers in applied linguistics,
to professionals who want to understand the role of language in
their work, and to teachers of English for specific purposes.
