Reviews
The sheer empirical reach of the book makes it essential reading.... --David Kirkby, University of Durham The book is well organized, with the chapters unified into thematic sections, and not presented in the order in which the talks were given at the conference. Each talk was followed by a short discussion -- also presented in the book, which gives the reader an opportunity to learn about the interests and opinions of the audience...readers will enjoy this remarkable book. --Linguist List
