Phonology in Context cover

Phonology in Context takes a fresh look at phonology in a range of real-world contexts that go beyond traditional concerns and challenge existing assumptions and practices. It brings together research and theory from a range of research areas to suggest new directions for the field.

'Readers will experience the kind of intellectual excitement that comes with an academic subject being brought back to life for them. It is a must-read for graduate students and researchers, for whom it will be an indispensable reference.' - K. K. Luke, University of Hong Kong

'Martha Pennington has gathered here researchers at the cutting edge...enabling a synthesis which marks the vibrancy, theoretical sophistication, and broad applicability of phonology as it is understood today. Common to these new understandings are realizations of how phonology is shaped by dynamic processes of usage. This book will stimulate and inform experts and novices alike.' - Nick Ellis, University of Michigan
