Claire Simpson-Smith currently works as a research analyst at Tafe SA, Australia. She completed her PhD at the University of South Australia and formerly taught engineering communication at the University of Adelaide, Australia.
In the same way engineering applies science to solve problems, this book applies linguistics to address the persistent call for improved professional engineering communication skills.Using clear, straightforward language, Simpson-Smith analyses authentic engineering texts and explains the language features, and their implications, within. * Jennifer Walsh Marr, University of British Columbia and University of Toronto, Canada * This volume provides in-depth analyses of the evaluative language in engineering writing and offers illuminating insights into effective teaching of it, achieved through incorporating linguistic theory (SFL) and sociological theory (LCT) and quantitatively supported by Corpus Linguistics methodology. A valuable guide for both engineering students and their teachers. * Pin Wang, Associate Professor, Shanghai Jiao Tong University, China *
