Yes, although I've not read all of it, it is a good intro into the scholarly study of the Hebrew language. It defines terms and people who write in these areas, with a select bibliography. At that price, I would recommend it. Heh. I bought it. ;)

I've mentioned it here on the forum already. I'm reading it now (on Logos). Did you see that Robert Holmstedt wrote up a review of it (as a linguist)?

Jason,

Yes, I saw you mention it. That's why I bought it. :-)

No, I didn't know about Homstedt's review. Link or location?

EDIT: okay, I found your link here on BHebrew. Thanks!
