Evans Nicholas (ed.) The Non-Pama-Nyungan Languages of Northern Australia: Comparative studies of the continent's most linguistically complex region

The Australian National University, Research School of Pacific and Asian Studies, 2003. — x + 523 p. — (Pacific Linguistics 552/Studies in language change 3).The present volume brings together detailed comparative work on a number of non-Pama-Nyungan languages of Northern Australia, and is the first book-length study to span this linguistically complex region, containing as it does perhaps 90% of Australia's linguo-genetic diversity in an eighth of its land area. Many papers originated at a workshop held at the 1989 Australian Linguistics Society conference at Monash University, but several have been written specially for this volume.
