Human language is a remarkable phenomenon. Its study continues to be a source of fascination and delight. Dr. Donald Burquest, professor of linguistics at the University of Texas at Arlington, developed this foundational textbook during years of helping students overcome the feelings of dismay that new phonology students experience when confronted by a mass of raw phonetic data. While working through the material, the student is led through the steps of organizing data and is introduced to particular theories for later in-depth specialization.
In the second edition the author expanded on the first edition of this text by adding introductions to Autosegmental Phonology and Metrical Phonology. He has also included a series of problems at the end of most chapters that provide an opportunity for the student to apply the information in that chapter. This present edition incorporates numerous minor revisions and has an improved subject index.
This textbook is intended for use in an upper division introductory course in phonology, preparing the student to further study aspects of current theory.Table of ContentsPreface to the Third Edition Preface to the Second Edition Preface to the First Edition

Ken Pike: Scholar and Christian, a biography of linguist Kenneth L. Pike, written by his sister. She describes how scholarship and deep faith in God have been the basis for her brother's many achievements. Though his interest in linguistics arose from practical needs and ever finds new practical application he has become one of the most significant American theoreticians... Throughout his career he has manifested a gentle modesty rare to his profession...redoubtable in controversy but respectful toward his adversaries, poet and teacher of composition, he approaches the ideal of the Christian gentleman in his work and in his life... Dr. Raven I. McDavid, Jr. University of Chicago Pike is one of the rare academic figures known to me whose eminence in research, versatility in public affairs, and skill in teaching is of equally extraordinary value to the institutions which are fortunate enough to enjoy his many-sided services... Dr. Thomas A. SebeckResearch Center for Language and Semiotic Studies ...I would say without hesitation that his combination of theoretical power, descriptive insight and practical facility is unique in the subject.
