«Indo-European Phonology with a Human Face» is the monograph by Peter Dunphy-Hetherington and Xaverio Ballester on Indo-European phonology, in paperback.
The volume questions the dominant view in Indo-European linguistics, which reconstructs a phonologically exceptional language, and defends a more realistic approach: instead of an algebraically anomalous system, it proposes a phonology with a human foundation. Throughout its pages, arguments are gathered for the reconstructed proto-language to be plausible from an articulatory and typological standpoint.
Number 16 of the Lingüística collection of the University of Jaén; English edition of 152 pages.
For students and researchers of historical linguistics and phonology interested in the debate on the reconstruction of Indo-European.
