Introducing Linguistics brings together the work of scholars working at the cutting-edge of the field of linguistics, creating an accessible and wide-ranging introductory level textbook for newcomers to this area of study. The textbook:
• Provides broad coverage of the field, comprising five key areas: language structures, mind and society, applications, methods, and issues;
• Presents the latest research in an accessible way;
• Incorporates examples from a wide variety of languages – from isiZulu to Washo – throughout;
• Treats sign language in numerous chapters as yet another language, rather than a ‘special case’ confined to its own chapter;
