Best in a crowded field

Grover Hudson and Blackwell Publishers are to be congratulated for producing Essential Introductory Linguistics. Of the (too) numerous introductory texts on linguistics, Hudson's ranks number one. It is clear. It is concise and to-the-point. It has wonderful examples and useful exercises from a wide range of languages, with an appropriate bias towards English based on its primary audience of English-speaking university students. One minor quibble: there is no glossary.Overall: A
