A reference to parallel translation corpus is mandatory in the discussion of corpus generation, which the authors thoroughly address here, with a focus on Indian language corpora and English. Web-text corpus, a new development in corpus linguistics, is also discussed with elaborate reference to Indian web text corpora. The book also presents a short history of corpus generationand provides scenariosbefore and after the advent of computer-generated digital corpora.This book has several important features: it discusses many technical issues of the field in a lucid manner; contains extensive new diagrams and chartsfor easy comprehension; and presents discussions in simplified English to cater to the needs of non-native English readers. This is an important resourceauthored by academics who have many years of experience teaching and researching corpus linguistics. Its focus on Indian languages and on English corpora makes it applicable tostudents of graduate and postgraduate courses in applied linguistics, computational linguistics and language processing in South Asia and across countries where English is spoken as a first or second language.
