Source Book for Linguistics

This is a revised and expanded edition of Cowan and Rakusan's Source Book for Linguistics. In addition to the chapters on Phonetics, Phonology, Phonological Alternations, Morphology, Syntax, Sound Change and Historical Reconstruction, there are two new chapters on Semantics and Grammatical and Lexical Change, plus an index of the 93 languages and dialects represented in the book and a revised bibliography. New exercises have been added to most chapters, and many exercises have been revised to focus on new issues in linguistics. Solutions can be found in a separate section. This new edition is an up-to-date teaching tool and a source of examples in a variety of linguistic applications.
