In taking a diachronic perspective to trace language variation and change in a range of specialised, discipline-specific discourses, Hyland and Jiangs volume provides rich perspectives into the way both monolingual and multilingual writers alike position themselves in their texts."Carmen Perez-Llantada, University of Zaragoza, Spain"An excellent read!
