This book traces the development of Greek from Proto-Indo-European to around the 5th century BC, drawing on all the tools of scientific historical and comparative linguistics. It contributes to long-standing debates surrounding the classification of Ancient Greek dialects and discusses the tension between cladistics and contact phenomena.

This book describes the earliest reconstructable stages of the prehistory of English, drawing on work in Hittite, Sanskrit, Greek, Latin, Slavic, Gothic, and Old Norse. This second edition has been significantly revised to include new developments in the field and a more in-depth account of Proto-Indo-European.
