Announcing:

*Adjective attribution*
by Michael Rießler

A Language Science Press open-access book, freely downloadable 
(http://langsci-press.org//catalog/book/19). Print-on-demand copies 
available.

This book is the first typological study of adjective attribution 
marking. Its focus lies on Northern Eurasia, although it covers many 
more languages and presents an ontology of morphosyntactic categories 
relevant to noun phrase structure in general. Besides treating 
synchronic data, the study contributes to historical linguistics by 
reconstructing the origin of new types specifically in the language 
contact area between the Indo-European and Uralic families.

(By ordering a print copy for your library, you will support Language 
Science Press.)

Best wishes,
Martin
