Rezensionen

"The revisions are really excellent. They keep the wealth of typological examples in the first edition, while incorporating a deep and clear discussion of recent advances in the theory of productivity and change. This updated training for students will certainly raise the level of the field."

Janet B. Pierrehumbert, Professor of Linguistics, Northwestern University, USA
