John Olsson,June Luchjenbroers: Forensic Linguistics

Forensic Linguistics


Description

Now in its third edition, John Olsson's practical introduction to forensic linguistics is required reading for students of language and the law. This third edition has been revised, expanded and updated throughout, and includes new chapters on identifying forensic texts and important interactional aspects of the language used in legal contexts. There is also a substantial chapter on forensic phonetics by Harry Hollien, a world renowned forensic phonetician. The book includes an appendix of forensic texts for student study, and even more exercises and suggestions for further reading. This practical introduction to forensic linguistics is based on Olsson's extensive experience as a practising forensic linguist and as lecturer on dozens of courses worldwide. Olsson's work has been successfully combined with Luchjenbroers' research into the language used to and by criminals, witnesses and legal professionals, to become essential reading for students, and researchers encountering this branch of applied linguistics for the first time.

The elegant, intelligent amateur sleuth Lord Peter Wimsey is one of detective literature's most popular creations. Ian Carmichael is the personification of Dorothy L. Sayers' charming investigator in this BBC Radio 4 full-cast dramatisation. When mystery writer Harriet Vane is accused of the murder of her lover, the evidence seems pretty damning. But Lord Peter Wimsey is not convinced - and when, five hours later, no verdict has been returned, it seems the jury may not be either. But if Harriet An Introduction to Christian Theology ebook pdf didn't murder Philip Boyes, who did? "Fame, Fortune, and Ambition: What Is The Value in Striving for Worldly Success?" examines the outward symptoms and the underlying psychology of preoccupations with money and celebrity, with a perspective that is thought-provoking and often surprising - and particularly relevant to our troubled economic times: Why do celebrities and the wealthy seem to have so much influence in the world? Do values like competitiveness and ambition have a place in bringing innovation and positive change? Where does greed come from? Is it really true that money can't buy happiness?
