Almost all languages have some ways of categorizing nouns. This book provides an analysis of noun categorization devices all over the world. It is for typologists, those working in the fields of morphosyntactic variation and lexical semantics, as well as anthropologists and all other scholars interested in the mechanisms of human cognition.
