Cohesion in English is concerned with a relatively neglected part of the linguistic system: its resources for text construction, the range of meanings that are speciffically associated with relating what is being spoken or written to its semantic environment. A principal component of these resources is ''cohesion''. This book studies the cohesion that arises from semantic relations between sentences.

Further, it describes a method for analysing and coding sentences, which is applied to specimen texts. Less
