Review from previous edition 'Beautifully produced and written, and
laudably clear in what it sets out to do ... Both erudite and
stimulating.' German Teaching
'A book which fills a basic need of German programs in
English-speaking institutions: an introduction to the linguistic
investigation of contemporary German ... It should prove to be a
valuable textbook to accompany semester-long courses, and
individual chapters could also be used to introduce more
specialized topics in the analysis of modern German.' Zeitschrift
