A revival of interest in morphology has occurred during recent
years. The Yearbook of Morphology series, published since 1988, has
proven to be an eminent support for this upswing of morphological
research, since it contains articles on topics which are central in
the current theoretical debates which are frequently referred to.

In the Yearbook of Morphology 2001 a number of articles is devoted to
the notion of productivity, and the role of analogy in coining new
words. In relation to this topic, constraints on affix ordering in a
number of Germanic languages are investigated.

A second topic of this volume is the necessity and the role of the
paradigm in morphological analyses; arguments for and against the
formal role of the paradigm are presented.

Thirdly, this volume discusses a number of general issues in
morphological theory such as the relation between form and meaning in
morphology, the accessibility of the internal morphological structure
of complex words, and the interaction of morphology and prosody in
truncation processes. Audience: Theoretical, descriptive, and
historical linguists, morphologists, phonologists, computational
linguists, and psycholinguists will find this book of interest.
