Reviews

'The volume presents a very useful discussion of the methodology of linguistic subgrouping, methods of computational cladistics and the features allowing the establishment of the individual subbranches of Indo-European and speaking for or against possible higher intermediate nodes.' Daniel K�lligan, Folia Linguistica 'This is an outstandingly valuable book, bringing together facts and hypotheses which have been scattered through the professional literature. It will surely become a convenient reference source and a starting-point for scholars who develop new hypotheses in this field.' Geoffrey Sampson, The Linguist List
