The book does not provide practical analysis techniques for novice researchers
A very helpful resource, presenting a good balance of theoretical information and actual examples of discourse analysis of text. The appendices include more material which is helpful to the reader, both at novice and more advanced level.
I now use this text for explaining critical discourse analysis to M-Level students, though it is a bit difficult and clunky in places. It is the best book on CDA I've found thus far, but I am looking for somethign more accessible for students.
I would recommend as an introduction text.
Great book offering a practical guide to conducting discourse analysis.
