* Features/Benefits o The first book to comprehensively and
systematically review corpus analytic research methods to
understand/examine second language acquisition (L2 use, processing,
development, and pedagogy). o Discusses recent empirical studies
that employ these techniques to apply corpus linguistic methods
across diverse areas of SLA and theoretical orientations, and
highlights the contributions that corpus methods have made to the
studies' results. o Discusses how new and emerging corpus
linguistic methods can be fruitfully used in future SLA research. *
Demand/Audience o The field of Second Language Acquisition has had
a marked increase in studies on and interest in corpus- and
usage-based approaches. This book serves that audience in both
courses and personal research use with a comprehensive, up-to-date,
how-to volume on corpus-based research methodology. o A unique
resource for students and researchers of SLA and applied
linguistics, corpus linguistics, second language pedagogy, bi- and
multilingualism, and language teaching. * Competition o No real
competition. Extant books in this area fail to cover corpus
linguistics methods for SLA comprehensively as this book does; they
either report findings from a specific research study or focus on a
single theoretical perspective/particular area of SLA. o Many of
the books in this area are edited volumes, which lack the unified
authoritative voice of a single author that this book will have.
