Dixon's 2002 monograph 'Australian languages: their nature and development'
has just been reissued in paperback and was chosen by Cambridge University
Press as the 10,000th title in their digital paperback programme through
the Lightning Source company. At the Frankfurt Book Fair, the Lightning
Source CEO presented Dixon (in absentia) with an elegant glass plaque
commemorating this.
