Language Classification by Numbers
ISBN: 9780199279029 / Angielski / Miękka / 2006 / 283 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. This book considers how languages have traditionally been divided into families, and asks how they should classified in the future. It describes and applies computer programs from biology and evolutionary genetics to data about languages and shows how the power of the computer can be harnessed to throw light on long-standing problems in historical linguistics. It tests current theories and hypotheses, shows how new ideas can be formulated, and offers a series of demonstrations that the new techniques applied to old data can produce convincing results that are sometimes startlingly at odds...

ISBN: 9780521891394 / Angielski / Miękka / 2012 / 326 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych.

ISBN: 9780521446655 / Angielski / Miękka / 1994 / 376 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. How and why do language changes begin; how and why do they spread; and how can they ultimately be explained? This new textbook sets out to answer these questions in a clear and helpful way that will be accessible to all students with only an elementary knowledge of linguistics. In the first half of the book Dr. McMahon analyzes changes from every area of grammar. In the second she looks at such topics as language contact, linguistic variation, pidgins and Creoles, and language death. Throughout, the discussion is illustrated by a wealth of examples from English and other languages.

Change, Chance, and Optimality
ISBN: 9780198241249 / Angielski / Twarda / 2000 / 216 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. This book is about how languages change. It is also a devastating critique of a widespread linguistic orthodoxy. April McMahon argues that to provide a convincing explanation of linguistic change the roles of history and contingency must be accommodated in linguistic theory. She also shows that theoretical work in related disciplines can be used to assess the value of such theories.
Optimality Theory, or OT as it is usually called, dominates contemporary phonology, especially in the USA, and is becoming increasingly influential in syntax and language acquisition. Having set out its basis... This book is about how languages change. It is also a devastating critique of a widespread linguistic orthodoxy. April McMahon argues that to provide ...
