Collins Key Words in Business/ Key Words in the Media
A real ‘hardcore’ collocations and Corpora book. It illustrates various (generally quite difficult and specialist) pieces of vocabulary with authentic texts and five to ten short extracts showing various collocations and meanings. It is very easy to find your way around, with the vocabulary divided into clear sections and an easy-to-use index. As the texts are used more as an illustration of specific vocabulary than a text for their own right, it can be very hard to use them in a group lesson. It is also unlikely any one student will need more than 30% of the book, but it is a great resource for providing very specific homework for ESP students, and a great resource for a school library or Self Access Centre.
