Malcolm Coulthard and Alison Johnson 2007: An Introduction to Forensic Linguistics: Language in Evidence. London and New York: Routledge. 237 pp. ISBN 978-0-415-32023 In many countries around the world Forensic Linguistics is now a well defined, well established discipline which seeks to uncover and establish the existing interplay between linguistic and legal issues. The discipline of 'Forensic Linguistics/Language and the Law' has consolidated in the last twenty years from the point of view of both research and teaching programmes, and through this consolidation the discipline has emerged as multidisciplinary in nature.
