This second edition has been revised and updated throughout, and includes new chapters on language in the justice system, forensic transcription, and expanded information on forensic phonetics. The book includes an appendix of forensic texts for student study, exercises and suggestions for further reading.This unique, hands-on introduction to Forensic Linguistics, based on Olsson's extensive experience as a practising forensic linguist, is essential reading for students, and researchers encountering this branch of applied linguistics for the first time.
"John Olsson's Forensic Linguistics breaks new ground in forensic linguistics in measured but definite stepsProfessional linguists and students alike will profit from a careful reading and lively discussion of Olsson's work." Professor Gerald McMenamin, Department of Linguistics, California State University, Fresno."
