About this book

Cognitive Linguistics: Current Applications and Future Perspectives is an up-to-date survey of recent research in Cognitive Linguistics and its applications by prominent researchers. The volume brings together generally accessible syntheses and special studies of Cognitive Linguistics strands in a sizable format and is thus an asset not only to the Cognitive Linguistics community, but also to neighbouring disciplines and linguists in general. The volume covers a wide range of fields and combines wide accessibility with a highly specific information value.

Key features:

An excellent source for the study of Applied Cognitive Linguistics, one of the most popular and fastest growing areas in Linguistics.
Authoritative and detailed survey articles by leading scholars in the field.
Accessible to a general audience, yet also characterized by a highly specific information value.

Reviews

"In conclusion, this 11 chapter volume constitutes a highly valuable resource for beginners and experienced researchers in Cognitive Linguistics. Beyond offering overviews of various research subfields at the heart of the field, many of its chapters are inspirational while at the same time providing very careful reflections on the state of evidence and suitability of methods in a highly interdisciplinary field." Pia Sommerauer in: https://linguistlist.org/issues/30/30-3075.html (20.11.2019)
