Revue de presse

" The Handbook of Historical Linguistics proves an atypical handbook in several positive senses, beginning with the introduction′s bold tackling of foundational issues. While many chapters offer the expected compact overviews of familiar topics, others are, we hope, destined to become influential as needed lucid statements on particular issues... and thought–provoking, original contributions... The value of The Handbook of Historical Linguistics is multifaceted; its influence will be far–reaching and long–lasting." Journal of Linguistics

The editors have assembled a remarkable array of contributors who can introduce readers to the professional standards of scholarship and scientific reasoning that characterize the field. William Labov, University of Pennsylvania

An authoritative collection, by a stellar group of contributors, that presents historical linguistics as it really is a multifaceted study that is both a branch of general linguistics and a field in its own right. No other survey covers the territory half so well. Jay Jasanoff, Harvard University
