Taking a text linguistic approach and defining discourse topics as clusterings of concepts, this book examines and compares methods for investigating topic boundaries, topic identification and topic development.

It is essential reading for researchers in linguistics, discourse analysis, natural language processing and psychology whose work concerns topics.
