     Sanford B. Steever, ed,, THE DRAVIDIAN LANGUAGES
     This authoritative reference provides unique descriptions of 11
     Dravidian languages, covering their historical development with
     discussions of their specialized linguistic structures and features.
     Each chapter combines modern linguistic theory with traditional
     historical linguistics and a uniform chapter structure allows for easy
     comparison between the individual languages. Two further chapters
     provide general information about the language family--the
     introduction covers the history, cultural implications and linguistic
     background, and a separate article on Dravidian writing systems.
     Written by a team of experts, each language chapter offers a detailed
     analysis of phonology, morpology, syntax and lexicon.
