''Learning to program isn't really hard,' the author claims.
Teaching good programming to linguists, however, or to arts and
humanities students in general, isn’t really that easy a job
either, in practice. This introductory book, clear and concise as
it is, should be a helpful tool at the very first stages of such an
enterprise." Kwee Tjoe Liong, Universiteit van
Amsterdam
"The really strong points of the book are the examples and
exercises. These are almost all language-related and include
useful, interesting and relevant questions and situations that the
reader interested in language research will appreciate." New
Zealand Studies in Applied Linguistics
"Surprisingly readable...should be on the bookshelf of any discourse analysist even thinking about tinkering with using computers to automate some portion of their data analysis...the examples and exercises are excellent, as is [Hammond's] exegesis of the examples- slow without becoming tedious."
