Subject: [Corpora-List] Corpus Linguistics Textbook


Hello,
I am preparing a syllabus for a senior undergraduate introductory =
course on corpus linguistics. The focus is on text processing (not =
computational linguistics). What would be a good textbook for such a =
course? Many titles have appeared in recent years, but I don't have time =
to evaluate all of them, and the cost of acquiring more than a couple is =
beyond my budget. What does 'everyone' use?=20
Thanks much.
