"This book is a thoroughly admirable compilation. We can be very glad that it has been produced while at least a few speakers of most of these languages survive: a decade or two later it might have become very difficult to achieve such comprehensive coverage of one of the world's major language families. The book is well written and clear, despite the fact that scarcely any contributor has English as his or her mother tongue." - Geoffrey Sampson, University of Sussex, Linguist List
