"The book offers an innovative solution to the long-standing issue of how to model text as an on-going process. It not only brings fresh insights into the intricate ways text unfolds in context, but also provides an ingenious framework for analysing the dynamic process of text, thus a valuable piece of scholarship in discourse analysis." - Professor Shaozeng Ren, Zhejiang University, China "This is the book we have all been waiting for: it attempts to model text as process within the framework of systemic functional linguistics and at the same time offers a dynamic approach to discourse analysis. It also gives a clear description of many features of EFL classroom discourse in the Chinese context, a unique feature among books of the same kind. For those interested in discourse analysis and in SFL as an appliable linguistics, this book is a 'must-read'." - Professor Guowen Huang, Sun Yat-sen University, China Modelling Text as Process is a formidable work, describing an innovation within the systemic-functional tradition for researchers to explore, refine, and dispute... Researchers within systemic-functional linguistics will undoubtedly find much to inspire further research. http://linguistlist.org/issues/22/22-4339.html
