A precious guide to the meandering paths of morphological analysis. The ideal textbook for encouraging advanced students to question the issues of morphological units and the relation of morphology to other linguistic fields. A critical eye to the most recent theoretical approaches of word structure. This volume should be an essential part of any graduate course in morphology.
