This volume brings together an international group of linguists from a diverse range of research backgrounds to explore the cycles of change in the world's languages. The chapters in this book draw on data both from languages from the distant past, such as Hittite and Proto-Bantu, and from a wide range of present-day languages.

Darya Kavitskaya is Associate Professor in the Department of Slavic Languages and Literatures and in the Linguistics Department at the University of California, Berkeley. Her main research interests are contrast preservation and loss and opacity, and she is particularly interested in palatalization and vowel harmony. Her work focuses on phonological issues in Slavic, Turkic, and Uralic, and is connected to other linguistic fields such as historical linguistics, phonetics, and language acquisition. Alan C. L. Yu is the William Colvin Professor of Linguistics and the College at the University of Chicago. His research focuses on language variation and change, particularly from an individual-difference perspective. He is the author of A Natural History of Infixation (OUP, 2007), the editor of Origins of Sound Change: Approaches to Phonologization (OUP, 2013), and co-editor of The Handbook of Phonological Theory, 2nd Edition (Wiley Blackwell, 2011). He is co-General Editor of Laboratory Phonology, and Associate Editor of the International Journal of American Linguistics. He was elected a Fellow of the Linguistic Society of America in 2016.
