ISBN: 9780198723011 出版年：2012 页码：549 Aikhenvald, Alexandra Y Oxford University Press

The first guide to Amazonia's over 300 languages compares their features, sets out their characteristics, and describes the cultures of those who speak them. Clearly written and brought vividly to life with anecdotes from the author's fieldwork, this is both an essential reference and an accessible introduction for linguistics and anthropologists.
