Cognitive Linguistics for Linguists
SpringerBriefs in Linguistics Expert Briefs
Series Editor Helen Aristar-Dry, Dripping Springs, TX, USA
Springer Expert Briefs in Linguistics are invited topical monographs written by experienced linguists, designed to bring knowledgeable readers up to date on current linguistic subfields, approaches, or research questions. They are designed to be succinct overviews, restricted in length but unrestricted as to theory or branch of linguistics. Because of their brevity and expert authorship, they are well-suited to serve as unit texts in graduate and undergraduate seminars, as well as to acquaint scholars with recent developments outside their own research areas.
