<div align="left" style="text-align:left;"><font face="Geneva" size="+0" color="#000000" style="font-family:Geneva;font-size:12pt;color:#000000;">Caterina Mauri (<a href="http://lettere.unipv.it/diplinguistica/pagina.php?id=19" target="_blank">http://lettere.unipv.it/diplinguistica/pagina.php?id=19</a>) wrote a PhD that you may find useful. She writes on her home page that she "carried out a typological research on the cross-linguistic coding of the three coordination relations of combination ('and'), contrast ('but') and alternative ('or'), based on a 74 language sample".</font></div>
