Michael Fortescue
This book offers a crosslinguistic survey of polysynthetic languages, in which single multi-morpheme verb forms can express what would be whole sentences in English. It looks at a range of issues from a cross-theoretical perspective, including complexity, argument structure, language contact, and language obsolence.
