This handbook on Chinese linguistics offers a broad and comprehensive coverage of the entire field from a multi-disciplinary perspective. Traditional linguistic studies of grammar and phonology are joined with empirical evidence from psycholinguistics and cognitive neurosciences. In addition to research on the Chinese language and its major dialect groups, this Handbook covers studies on sign languages and non-Sinitic languages, such as the Austronesian languages spoken in Taiwan. All chapters are contributed to by leading scholars in their respective areas.
