"?All academic libraries supporting high-level work on linguistics, language acquisition, or inter-personal communication should seriously consider both this and the Blackwell Companion to Syntax for acquisition.? (Reference Reviews, 2012) ""The Companion is a lively, accessible and superbly organized world tour of Phonology, covering all the territory a reader could hope for, with some extra, unexpected gems."" ?April McMahon, University of Edinburgh ""The Companion to Phonology is an encyclopedia of the problems and puzzles that have occupied the field over the past fifty years. It systematizes what we have learned and provides a platform for future work?a reference tool that working phonologists will turn to daily."" ?Michael Kenstowicz, Massachusetts Institute of Technology ""This set will be the indispensible go-to guide for anyone embarking on a research project in any of the more than 100 different phenomena covered. By choosing younger authors as well as established scholars, the editors have ensured that this work is timely and reflects a diversity of viewpoints."" ?John J. McCarthy, University of Massachusetts, Amherst ""This set is a remarkable achievement; the comprehensiveness of the coverage of phenomena and issues that have been central to phonological studies is unequaled. Assuredly, it will be the standard reference tool in phonology for decades to come."" ?Glyne Piggott, McGill University"
