Frontiers of Phonology is a collection of essays that present a
selective overview of trends in the linguistic analysis of sound
structure. The essays are written by specialists from Europe,
Canada and the USA and discuss issues from three broad areas of
phonology: the nature and representation of phonological features;
the role and structure of the skeletal tier and syllable structure;
and the competing claims of derivational and declarative approaches
to phonology. The book provides a forum for lively discussion of
important theoretical topics from various standpoints including
metrical and autosegmental phonology, dependency phonology and
declarative phonology. The contributors, who are protagonists of
these different standpoints, compare notes and show the merits of
their different approaches. The essays discussing derivational
issues offer an excellent introduction to the area of constraints
based phonology, and by covering the phonology of many languages
the book provides an understanding of how human languages in
general use sound.
