Recent textbooks in historical linguistics concentrate more on the theory of language change than on methods of linguistic reconstruction. This book redresses the balance, providing a general guide to methods and theories of linguistic of languages. It describes both traditional and newer, less well established techniques.

This overall view of the nature of prosodic features of language - accent, stress, rhythm, tone, pitch, and intonation - shows how these connect to sound systems and meaning.
