The Language of Websites (Intertext (London, England).)

The Intertext series has been specifically designed to meet the needs of contemporary English Language Studies. Working with Texts: A Core Introduction to Language Analysis (second edition 2001) is the foundation text, which is complemented by a range of 'satellite' titles. These provide students with hands-on practical experience of textual analysis through special topics, and can be used individually or in conjunction with Working with Texts.

The Language of Websites:

• explores the ways in which websites use and present language
• covers many different types of web-based interaction, from buying online and auction sites, to search engines, email links and chatrooms
• considers the structures of language online, such as audience interaction and how hypertext alters narrative structure
• features a full glossary.
