520    "Many Austronesian languages exhibit isolating word 
       structure. This volume offers a series of investigations 
       into these languages, which are found in an "isolating 
       crescent" extending from Mainland Southeast Asia through 
       the Indonesian archipelago and into western New Guinea. 
       Some of the languages examined in this volume include Cham,
       Minangkabau, colloquial Malay/Indonesian and Javanese, Lio,
       Alorese, and Tetun Dili. The main purpose of this volume 
       is to address the general question of how and why 
       languages become isolating, by examination of a number of 
       competing hypotheses. While some view morphological loss 
       as a natural process, others argue that the development of
       isolating word structure is typically driven by language 
       contact through various mechanisms such as creolization, 
       metatypy, and Sprachbund effects. This volume should be of
       interest not only to Austronesianists and historians of 
       Insular Southeast Asia, but also to grammarians, 
       typologists, historical linguists, creolists, and 
       specialists in language contact"--|cProvided by publisher.
