an exceptional piece of scholarship, and one must truly congratulate the editor for providing us with a brilliantly contextualised second edition of I WPR^.. The book establishes with authority I WPR^'s status as the single most influential text in the history of language and gender. * Marlis Hellinger, Historiographia Linguistica *
