Review

a real treasure...highly stimulating. (Thomas Stolz, Sprachtypologie und Universalienforschung)

Aikhenvald's book is the most comprehensive and dependable guide available - it is unique (Terry Malone, SIL International Book Reviews)

The most thorough attempt to date on noun categorization devices. It surveys about 500 languages which the author claims is one-tenth of all languages. (Language)
