First Published in 2005. This is a work remarkable for its scholarship, originality and independence of though. As an introduction to philology it has never been surpassed in terms of combining scholarship or accessibility. Anyone who loves words or who is at all curious about language will appreciate this book, covering as it does all the ground from every useful angle. A level headed and erudite study.
