N2 - The volume ‘All families and genera’: Exploring the Corpus of English Life Sciences
Texts, edited by Isabel Moskowich, Inés Lareo and Gonzalo Camiña, is a very
interesting and useful publication in the field of historical and diachronic studies on the
language of science. The book is a collection of fifteen essays and introduces a new
corpus of texts, known as CELiST (Corpus of English Life Sciences Texts, 1700–
1900), as a subsection of the Coruña Corpus of English Scientific Writing (CC)
compiled by the MuSTE Research Group (Multidimensional Corpus-Based Studies in
English). The general aim of the volume is to support and promote qualitative research
in line with a corpus-based and corpus-driven quantitative approach (cf. Biber 2015:
195, 202).
