Average Reviews:
(More customer reviews)Hockey has been involved in the use of computers for the humanities since the 1980s. This is her most recent book. It is directed towards a reader majoring in the humanities, who needs some guidance with computing. The book is brief, and summarises what can be done in terms of preparing manuscripts for journals, many of which nowadays offer and may actually prefer electronic submission.
But Hockey also discusses how once papers have been put into electronic form, they can be analysed. At various levels of semantic/linguistic parsing. The computer science jargon is minimised, for which some readers should be grateful. The ideas are explained clearly.
