The Handbook of the Austroasiatic Languages is the first comprehensive reference work on this important language family of South and Southeast Asia.

The handbook comprises two parts, Overviews and Grammar Sketches : Part 1) The overview chapters cover typology, classification, historical reconstruction, plus a special overview of the Munda languages. Part 2) Some 27 scholars present grammar sketches of 21 languages, representing 12 of the 13 branches. The sketches are carefully prepared according to the editors' unifying typological approach, ensuring analytical and notational comparability throughout.
