Thomason: Language Contact

"Language Contact, Creolization, and Genetic Linguistics" by Sarah G. Thomason, Terrence Kaufman, published by University of California Press. Ten years of research back up the bold new theory advanced by authors Thomason and Kaufman, who rescue the study of contact-induced language change from the neglect it has suffered in recent decades. The authors establish an important new framework for the historical analysis of all degrees of contact-induced language change. Book details: 212 pages, published 1988.
