G.-M. de Schryver (Editor). A Way with Words: Recent Advances in Lexical Theory and Analysis. A Festschrift for Patrick Hanks

Abstract

A Way with Words is a Festschrift volume to honour the 70th birthday of Patrick Hanks. The volume is attractively printed on thick, good quality paper, hardbound in cloth and supplied with a cover sleeve (which, I admit in shame, I have a habit of throwing away, but this one has an adorable portrait of Patrick which can be enjoyed quite independently of the book). The title on the cover is rendered in golden letters, perhaps a hint at the level of contribution the dedicatee has made to the study and description of meaning.
