It is becoming the norm for morphology textbooks (in fact most linguistics textbooks) to have glossaries in the back of the book, but nothing compares to the scope and level of explanation found in A Glossary of Morphology. The scholarship is superior. The introduction is well written and helpful and the indexes are well organized. The cross-referencing between glossary entries is also very useful and well done.
Andrew Spencer
Bauer's A Glossary of Morphology should prove to be a very useful teaching aid. The coverage is wide, with ample cross-referencing, and the explanations and definitions are straightforward and concise, with a minimum of technicality.
From the Publisher
"For students of linguistics, A Glossary of Morphology fills a substantial need as the first-ever dictionary of morphology...it will also be useful for specialists in related fields, including anthropology, philosophy, computer science, and language pedagogy. An essential resource for undergraduates pursuing studies in morphology, and indeed, for graduate students and professional linguists whose specializations are outside of morphology."—Gregory Stump, professor of English and linguistics, University of Kentucky

"It is difficult to think of a person better qualified—as well as being a leading scholar and theoretician in the field of morphology—Laurie Bauer is also an excellent teacher and writer who knows how to make complex ideas accessible."—Francis Katamba, professor, Department of Linguistics and Modern English Language, Lancaster University, U.K.
