     Lars Johanson and Eva Agnes Csato, eds., THE TURKIC LANGUAGES
     Turkic Languages is the first reference book for almost forty years to
     bring together detailed discussions of the historic development and
     specialized linguistic structures and features of the languages in the
     Turkic family. Written by an international team of experts, Turkic
     Languages will be invaluable to students and researchers within
     linguistics, Turcology and Near Eastern and Oriental Studies.

     Daniel Abondolo, ed,, THE URALIC LANGUAGES
     This book provides a unique survey of individual Uralic languages and
     sub-groupings from Finnish to Selkup and Obugrian to Samoyedic. Giving
     both an overview and then detailed analyses of the Uralic languages,
     the volume describes their history and development as well as focusing
     on their linguistic structure. Each chapter is similarly-structured,
     designed for comparative study and including phonology, morphology,
     syntax, lexicon and sample text where available. Each includes
     numerous tables to support and illustrate the text and bibliographies
     of the major references in each language to aid further study.
