Russian: A Comprehensive Grammar gives a practically complete description of the grammatical system of the contemporary Russian language, including phonetics, morphology, word formation, and syntax.
It illuminates grammatical categories by focusing on forms and semantics, using as a basis the comparative analysis of language categories in Russian and English and accompanying accessible but not simplistic explanations with authentic examples. It employs a parallel presentation of grammatical and semantic information that elucidates important points and allows the exploration of alternative linguistic approaches.
Russian: A Comprehensive Grammar serves a broad linguistic community, including students of Russian at any level, graduate students in linguistics or pedagogy, for independent study, and it can also be a valuable reference for instructors to mine for methodological material.

About the Author
John Dunn taught for thirty years at the University of Glasgow, where he specialized in Russian and Polish languages, Slavonic linguistics, and the Russian mass media. Initially he concentrated his attention on Russian historical linguistics, but more recently has been examining changes in the Russian language since 1990 with particular reference to the role of English. With his erstwhile colleague Shamil Khairov he co-authored Modern Russian Grammar (Routledge, 2009), the associated Workbook (Routledge, 2011), and Russian For All Occasions (Routledge, 2019). At present he is compiling the Russian entries for GLAD (a global database of Anglicisms).
Marina Rojavin teaches at Bryn Mawr College. She specializes in Russian language, culture, and cinema. She has published articles on the semantic category of gender in Russian and Ukrainian and on the grammatical category of gender in Russian. She and her colleagues published Russian for Advanced Students (2013). Her most recent publications are Women in Soviet Film: The Thaw and Post-Thaw Periods (Routledge, 2017) and Soviet Films of the 1970s and Early 1980s: Conformity and Non-Conformity Amidst Decay (Routledge 2021) co-edited with Tim Harte; Russian Nouns of Common Gender in Use (Routledge, 2019) and Russian Function Words: Meanings and Use (Routledge 2019), both completed with Alexander Rojavin; and Russian Syntax for Advanced Students (Routledge, 2022).

We may make a deduction from the reimbursement for loss in value of any goods supplied, if the loss is the result of unnecessary handling by you.
