An Introduction to the Indo-European Languages

This is an extremely helpful introduction to Indo-European Languages. If you know nothing about Aryan languages, this is a very layman friendly book. A great overview. The author never tries to drown you with his PHd. This book is pretty Egghead free and that suits me. Not all of us have rich mommies and daddies who can pay our way through Yale. The author gets that. Thank the Gods!

This is a very concise and well-systematized book. Almost all about the The Indo-European languages were described very briefly and specifically in this small book. The author gives very brief presentation for short phonological and morphological characteristics for each Indo-European language as well as the sample texts, adding the relevant references to every end of the chapter. The vast range of information on Indo-European languages were well summarized in the total 214 pages of the book. I would like to recommend it to the beginners.
