Fresher's Book - that's it January 25, 2005 6 out of 6 found this review helpful
Ultimate bible book when starting an undergraduate degree in Linguistics or English Language, this book will become one of the few books students will carry round all the time. The book covers all main and classical areas of linguistics, such as phonology, morphology, or syntax and offers a good introduction to all disciplines.However, this book is worth buying second-hand only, because it won't be of any good use for final year students or further. Many students have bought a new copy in their first year, only realising they were selling it in the 2nd. Good book, but short life span.

this book is the first year linguistics student's Bible, i'm now on my second year of study in this fascinating and yet completely baffling subject and have found this book one of my most valuable resources.
