Theories of Lexical Semantics offers a comprehensive overview of the major traditions of word meaning research in linguistics. In spite of the growing importance of the lexicon in linguistic theory, no overview of the main theoretical trends in lexical semantics is currently available. This book fills that gap by charting the evolution of the discipline from the mid nineteenth century to the present day. It presents the main ideas, the landmark publications, and thedominant figures of five traditions: historical-philological semantics, structuralist semantics, generativist semantics, neostructuralist semantics, and cognitive semantics. The theoretical and methodological relationship between the approaches is a major point of attention throughout the text: going well beyond amere chronological enumeration, the book does not only describe the theoretical currents of lexical semantics, but also the undercurrents that have shaped its evolution.

Establishing the study of multiple pregnancy and the perinatal care of children from multiple births as a recognized specialty within maternal-fetal medicine, the first edition of Multiple Pregnancy was a landmark publication.

The book presents all facets of the clinical, psychosocial, and practical issues of multiple gestation and the care of multiplets.
Dit deel uit de reeks Cahiers Geschiedenis van de Geneeskunde en Gezondheidszorg is gewijd aan grote figuren en belangwekkende ontwikkelingen uit de geneeskundige zorg.

Maar het handelt evenzeer over aandoeneingen bij Italiaanse hertogen en pausen, over de bezenuving van de baarmoeder of over de ziekte van Addison bij John F. Kennedy.
