New at Language Science Press, the premium open access publisher: 
Conceptual Foundations of Language Science

A book series edited by Mark Dingemanse (Max Planck Institute, Nijmegen) and
N.J. Enfield (University of Sydney)
No scientific work proceeds without conceptual foundations. In language
science, our concepts about language underlie our thinking and organize our
work. They determine our assumptions, direct our attention, and guide our
hypotheses and our reasoning. Only with clarity about conceptual foundations
can we pose coherent research questions, design critical experiments, and
collect crucial data.

This series publishes short and accessible books that explore well-defined
topics in the conceptual foundations of language science. The series provides
a venue for conceptual arguments and explorations that do not require the
traditional book-length treatment, yet that demand more space than a typical
journal article allows.

We welcome original submissions, as well as expanded versions of previously
published full-length articles or chapters that fit the series theme. Topics
may cover any conceptual or theoretical issue of importance for research on
language, from sound to syntax to semantics, from language contact to
acquisition to the ethnography of speaking. To be considered for this series,
a book must be short (length around 35,000 words, or 90 pages) and must be
written in clear, accessible prose, to maximize its appeal across the fields
of language science. Queries should be sent to the series editors.
