Product Features
- Covers all topics integral to an understanding of introductory linguistics. Written with the general education student in mind but also provides the linguistics, English, and anthropology major with the resources needed to succeed in subsequent courses.
- Takes a problem-centered approach and includes well-constructed exercises and study questions integrated within each chapter. These short sections (usually 3-7 pages) in each chapter help students to understand each subject before moving on to the next.
- Additional cross-cultural examples relevant to the topics covered have been added throughout the book, and devoted chapters on anthropological topics (Chs 6, 7, 8 & 12) .
- Emphasizes fieldwork and the fronting of phonology.
- Assumes no previous knowledge on the part of the student. All concepts are explained in a systematic way aided by numerous pedagogical tools including introductory questions that give the reader a summary of the content of the chapter and provide questions to keep in mind as the student reads the chapter; chapter summaries that provide a concise overview of the contents of each chapter; key terms that appear in bold are defined on the page where introduced; and an end-of-book glossary that provides a tool for students to review all key terms together.
- Features suggested readings and Internet resources at the end of each chapter, providing more sources for further reading, especially useful to a student required to write a research paper for the course.
- An author-written test bank includes nearly 1000 test questions in four question types: multiple choice, true-false, matching and problem-solving essay questions. Available in our online Instructor's Resources section.
