[Lingtyp] popular non-generative book

[Siva Kalyan]

One book that comes to mind is Cognitive Exploration of Language and Linguistics, by René Dirven and Marjolijn Verspoor (https://benjamins.com/catalog/clip.1 <https://benjamins.com/catalog/clip.1>). In fact, I'm not aware of any other book that is both from a cognitive/functional viewpoint and covers all the major topics in an introductory linguistics course (especially phonetics and phonology).

The choices expand if you have the option of assigning multiple books.

Something like Pinker's books, but from the opposite camp. Needed for an introductory course in linguistic diversity and general linguistics for students outside linguistics.
