Rezensionen

"I would recommend this book first and foremost to those who are seeking models to carry out multimodal and semiotic analyses. ... readers will find in this book relevant and up-to-date reading matter with which to venture into the promising field of multimodality. In sum, this publication is a very useful addition both to studies in promotional tourism discourse and to the burgeoning field of multimodal studies." (Miguel Fuster-Marquez, English Text Construction, Vol. 8 (2), Winter, 2015)
