"Features are a central concept in linguistic analysis. They are the basic building
blocks of linguistic units, such as words. For many linguists they offer the most
revealing way to explore the nature of language. Familiar features are Number (singular,
plural, dual ...), Person (1st, 2nd, 3rd), and Tense (present, past ...). Features
have a major role in contemporary linguistics, from the most abstract theorizing to
the most applied computational applications, yet little is firmly established about
their status. They are used, but are little discussed and poorly understood. In this
unique work, Corbett brings together two lines of research: how features vary between
languages and how they work. As a result, the book is of great value to the broad
range of perspectives of those who are interested in language"--
