Melita Rus _ellowjewellery — A surprisingly interesting book from many different perspectives and areas of expertise: from architecture to history to murder mystery. It's really pretty much an awesome book. Very hard to put down.

Lorna Lyons lornakl968edd — Quite good, this book, intruces very well the way in which Modern Standard German is transcribed in IPA and also explains what to do with dialects and colloquial speech. Their transcription is very narrow and they let the reader see how exact speech can be transcribed. The sample texts are well chosen and especially the dialect texts are explained thoroughly. They represented the German diphthongs in a rather unusual way, but on the other hand, this seems to be closer to the real pronunciation, so this is a good thing. However, there are a few downsides: The Saxon and Swabian texts aren't fully transcribed, instead only a few words are picked from the entire text. Why this was done is never explained and the mere fact is sad. I also noticed a larger bunch of errors in the part about Saxon, while other chapters had almost none at all — these include not only obvious errors in the transcription, but also some typos and mistakes in style (e.g. representing phonemes in [square brackets:] or showing a Middle High German vowel as [ë:]!). Another major problem of the book is that its view is a bit prescriptive. They show, *how* they transcribe certain vowels and consonants in colloquial speech and in dialects, but not *why* they do this. In other words: This books shows how various speakers of German pronounce some words and they give some (rather vague and not always exact) impression on the sound changes of these 3 dialects and in what might be colloqial pronunciation, but they never explain, how one actually recognizes these sounds. How do I distinguish one sound from the other and how do I chose the right symbol? This is not explained. I would rate it 3½ stars, but as there are quite interesting informations indeed, and a nice CD and useful references to other literature, I rather give it 4 than 3.
