"The author and publishers can be congratulated on an excellent
work; if I were teaching a class on writing systems now, this would
be my first choice as a textbook."
--William Bright, review in Written Language and Literacy
--William Bright, review in Written Language and Literacy
"This is an excellent comprehensive textbook for university
courses on writing systems (grammatology), with enough preliminary
remarks of a theoretical nature to enable the student to master the
scripts from around the world, including cuneiform of various
types, Semitic, Greek, Roman, etc. It is written in a clear style
with a very good glossary and up-to-date bibliography."
--Alan S. Kaye, California State University, Fullerton
