Language and Law : - Introduces useful linguistic concepts and tools - Outlines the methods linguists employ to analyse legal language and language in legal situations - Includes topics on such as: written legal language; threats, warnings and speech act theory; courtroom interactions and the work linguists do to help solve crimes; physical and 'spoken' signs; and the creativity of legal language
