    This textbook offers students a contemporary introduction to the study of language with fifteen thought-provoking chapters, accessible to readers from a variety of fields, and helpfully organized across six parts: sound; structure and meaning; language typologies and change; language and social aspects; language acquisition; and language, cognition, and the brain.
