Media Reviews
This book is a good idea. It's not written as a textbook but a linguistics manual, full of information about concepts and practices and written in a clear, straightforward language. It contains, for example a mini language-file (for the many languages referred to in textbooks without further
explanation); brief notes on central concepts in linguistics; the conventions of writing essays and assignments; technical terms that have two or more uses and a list of online resources for linguists. There is something here for everyone engaged in Linguistics, from first-year undergraduates
through final-year undergraduates and post-graduates to teaching staff. I foresee it being a constant companion. --Professor Jim Miller, University of Auckland
