Features: This book introduces the linguistic features and discourse structure of academic papers. What sets it apart from most similar works is its elucidation of the view that the register of academic discourse is composed of a set of macro-structural elements, while each macro-component is made up of a set of micro-elements. The book discusses and explains the fundamental theoretical foundations, functions, and related linguistic features of different macro and micro elements by citing examples from recently published papers in domestic and international academic journals.
