'This book provides valuable insights for applied linguistics researchers and students interested in corpus linguistics, lecturers in the disciplines who want to gain a better understanding of the issues surrounding the writing of Chinese students, and EAP/writing teachers.' Ursula Wingate, Senior Lecturer in Language in Education, King’s College London, UK. 'Situated at a crossroads between learner corpus research and academic disciplinary writing research, and with the learner population representing a hybrid between a foreign- and a second-language learning situation, the study adds to our understanding of the challenges of native and non-native speakers alike when faced with the task of writing academic papers in English.' Hilde Hasselgård, Professor, University of Oslo, Norway. 'This is a topical, yet relatively neglected, area of research to which this study has made a pertinent contribution.' Jonathan Culbert, EAP tutor, Xi’an Jiaotong-Liverpool University, China.
