Description ▲
Renowned lexicographer Laurence Urdang’s final reflections on the current state of the English language are recorded here; he died soon after completing the manuscript. All scholars, librarians, editors, students, and general readers with an interest in the English language will enjoy this fascinating account of, in Urdang’s words, “a life devoted to all aspects of language.â€
