The Romance Languages by Vice-Chancellor Martin Harris

Filling a critical gap in modern Romance language scholarship, and providing a theoretically strong, factually reliable reference source for future generations of linguists, this book surveys the structure and evolution of the Romance language family. A systematic balance of diachronic and synchronic approaches, it is the most comprehensive treatment of Romance languages available for both general reference and specialized linguistic investigation, examining Latin, French, Spanish, Italian, Portuguese, Rumanian, Catalan, Occitan, Sardinian, Rhaeto-Romance, and Romance-based pidgins and creoles. The treatments of each Romance language, by scholars of established reputation in that language, cover all main features, including phonology, morphology, syntax, and lexis. To aid the reader, each chapter concludes with a select list of reference works and further readings, and the book includes both an analytic index and a system of cross-reference within the main body of the text.

Martin Harris, a pharmacist, nutrition medicine specialist, and author, is dedicated to assisting individuals in achieving optimal health and wellness through the use of safe and effective nutrition medicine practices. He has studied under some of Australasia's top health professionals. His search for health and vitality answers was fueled by his family's catastrophic health tale. One of the most difficult things he has had to deal with was watching helplessly as traditional medicine failed to find solutions to his father's and wife's significant health crises. Martin now sees many of his patients in his pharmacy and nutrition medicine clinic suffering from the same illness cycle that afflicted his family.

Yet the most exciting part is that Martin's formal education and practical expertise spanning more than 20 years are offering amazing answers to assist these folks. Martin has published this book to share his knowledge of the dangers of a blinkered attitude to health with a larger audience.
