本书作者Laura Gavioli是莫德纳和勒佐艾米利亚大学的教授，多年来致力于语料库在语言教学、翻译教学和专门用途英语教学中的应用方面的研究。本书探究了基于语料库的学习方式对ESP教学中二语习得的影响，全书共分七章：引言、语料库语言学和语言教学的背景概况、理论前提、语料库和专门用途英语的关系、教师如何指导学习者研究语料库和数据、学习者探索语料库的过程和语言产出结果，以及结论。本书内容聚焦语料库语言学和专门用途语言的结合点，探讨了数据驱动学习的理论前提，探索了学生自主学习的方法和可行性。结果表明，在教学中使用语料库数据分析的方法，可以引发有关语料库语言学从理论和实践两个角度对教学的意义进行讨论和反思。 本书对于语料库语言学和专门用途语言教学的教材设计者、应用语言学家、教师和学习者都具有很强的理论和实践指导意义。
