The original (1985) edition of this work attempted to cover the main lines of development of phonological theory from the end of the 19th century through the early 1980s. Much work of importance, both theoretical and historiographic, has appeared in subsequent years, and the present edition tries to bring the story up to the end of the 20th century, as the title promised. This has involved an overall editing of the text, in the process correcting some errors of fact and interpretation, as well as the addition of new material and many new references.

After completing his PhD at MIT in 1969, he taught in the Linguistics Departments at Harvard and UCLA before moving to The Johns Hopkins University in 1988 as a co-founder of one of the first Departments of Cognitive Science.

Among his books are the first edition of Phonology in the twentieth century Chicago (1985), A-Morphous Morphology (Oxford, 1992), Doctor Dolittle's delusion (Yale, 2004) and René de Saussure and the Theory of Word Formation (with Louis de Saussure, LSP 2018).
