Everything bad that happens to Noah's parents turns out to be good in this delightful story about opposites. "The plot is highly imaginative, with cameo appearances by Tolstoy (the pet frog), Albert Einstein (the teacher), and Elvis Presley (the pet parrot). Alison Lang's illustrations are equally entertaining. Each panel is a world in itself, a world that revolves around young Noah and his personal perspective on good and bad. Highly recommended." Canadian Book Review Annual

This volume offers a state-of-the-art picture of work undertaken in the field of computer-aided corpus linguistics. While the focus is on English, central insights can be generalised to other languages, as well. As a work intended to mark the Silver Jubilee of ICAME, the International Computer Archive of Modern and Medieval English, the book combines surveys of the discipline by some of its major pioneers, including founders of ICAME itself, with cutting-edge work by younger scholars. It is divided into three sections: “Overviewing years of corpus linguistic studies”, “Descriptive studies in English syntax and semantics”, and “Second Language Acquisition, parallel corpora and specialist corpora”.
