New Linguistics Book Examines Gender and Language Patterns (fwd link)

[Dr. MJ Hardman]

Thank you, Phil!  And seeing it here first is most appropriate.  That it be
so let me tell you:  the Introduction begins with a poem by our Richard Zane
Smith, that I first read on this list and that Richard (thank you!) allowed
us to use, making us the first publisher thereof; the Jaqi languages figure
largely throughout the book; there are many other citations of other
languages ‹ the thread being that speakers of Englsih have a great deal to
learn from speakers of other languages, including many that are now
threatened.

Thank you all on this excellent list.  And may this book, now finally Œout
there¹, be of value to readers.  It is probably my last book.  The first one
I wrote by hand and then had to buy a manual typewriter (it cost $50!! in a
period in which I was earning $1800 a year) to hand it in.  And my last is a
e-book.  Quite an arc of living; it has been a wild ride.  May some of this
experience that we have put into this book open doors to others.  Again,
thank you to this list.
