Review :
"The new monograph [...] contributes to a better understanding of EMs [English modals] by appropriately combining linguistic theories and applying advanced rigorous quantitative methods. Consequently, this book is definitely a most cutting-edge one in studying EMs in terms of its theoretical and methodological significance and thus is strongly recommended to graduates and researchers interested in English grammar, corpus linguistics, construction grammar and related fields."

"Models of Modals represents a valuable contribution to the fields of corpus linguistics and pragmatics, demonstrating the benefits of interdisciplinary collaboration and the use of diverse empirical methods in the study of English modal verbs."

"Models of Modals is a welcome addition to the existing literature on modality and the English modal auxiliaries. The volume provides a rich sample of the advantages of many recent methods and statistical procedures for corpus analysis, and also shows the potential for improvement of automatic classification of the meanings of the modals by means of NLP's increasingly sophisticated techniques."
