"Written by one of the pioneers in the field, Forensic Linguistics is unquestionably one of the most definitive introductions to the dynamic intersection between language, crime, and the law." - Language Policy, "Written by one of the pioneers in the field, Forensic Linguistics is unquestionably one of the most definitive introductions to the dynamic intersection between language, crime, and the law." -- Language Policy, '[The text is well rounded, accurate, and relevant to the student of forensic linguistics...the smooth flow of the text is complemented by timely examples and problems that make the text completely self-contained (much like the internet course offered by Olsson: www.thetext.co.uk). Completion of the text from start to finish will leave the student with an introduction to the practical aspects of forensic linguistics.' Blake Stephen Howald, Linguist List, "Forensic Linguistics is a timely text; until recently few courses in this area existed. As this is a textbook for students, prior to dealing with other more specialist topics like statement analysis and plagiarism. the author suggests working through the several exercises in each chapter, for each of which model answers are helpfully provided at the end of the book."

Synopsis
The book is intended to be the core text for forensic linguistic courses at undergraduate level, and the key text for postgraduate research students wishing to gain an overall grasp of the subject. Forensic Linguistics contains detailed studies of all the major areas of the discipline, including the detection of plagiarism, the observation of style change, and an analysis of all of the most important types of forensic text, including ransom demands, suicide notes, hate mail, smear mail, trick mail, and terrorist mail. One of the greatest assets of the book is its discussion of specific forensic texts including the 'stalker text' from John Hinckley, an excerpt from the Unabomber case, Salem witch trial 'confessions', Virginia Woolf's suicide note, and ransom notes from Carlos the Jackal. Uniquely, Olsson looks not only at techniques for use in forensic linguistics per se, but also at how forensic linguistics can be of use to law enforcement and criminal justice professionals at the investigation level. This gives the book a practical 'hands-on' appeal to linguists and non-linguists alike., The book is intended to be the core text for forensic linguistic courses at undergraduate level, and the key text for postgraduate research students wishing to gain an overall grasp of the subject.

    The seller was kind enough to send me a USPS tracking number so that I could have a good idea as to when I’d receive my item. It came a day later than expected (probably due to the cold snap and snow storm here) and the seller was quick to respond when I voiced my concern on its arrival. It was packaged very well, no water damage or dings. Would recommend buying books from this seller!
