This impressive volume will, for years to come, be an indispensable tool for researchers on English morphology. * Andrew Carstairs-McCarthy, Morphology * The depth and the amount of research that has gone into this work are impressive. The care and thoroughness with which the authors present the corpus-based data are exemplary, and their decision to downplay theory while including copious helpful references to a wide number of synchronic approaches is commendable. This work will be of value to scholars of all sorts who study English, providing analytical bases for later work, data for classroom problems, and rich material for browsing. It is also a fine example of international collaboration between leading morphologists from three continents. * The Linguistic Society of America * It will be unputdownable for considerable time to anyone interested in 'words', how they yield to and defy morphological analysis, and how their incredible range of properties can be classified and commented upon by dyed-in-the-wool morphologists, employing 'modern' ways of data collecting. * Wim Zonneveld, Journal of Linguistics * This comprehensive book, which covers all aspects of English morphology, is a needed reference work. * P.J. Kurtz, CHOICE *
