Dixon's 2002 monograph 'Australian languages: their nature and development' has just been reissued in paperback and was chosen by Cambridge University Press as the 10,000th title in their digital paperback programme through the Lightning Source company. At the Frankfurt Book Fair, the Lightning Source CEO presented Dixon (in absentia) with an elegant glass plaque commemorating this.
