Know about the book -
Contact Languages is written by Peter Bakker and published by Walter de Gruyter. It's available with International Standard Book Number or ISBN identification 1614513716 (ISBN 10) and 9781614513711 (ISBN 13).
This volume deals with several types of contact languages: pidgins, creoles, mixed languages, and multi-ethnolects. It also approaches contact languages from two perspectives: an historical linguistic perspective, more specifically from a viewpoint of genealogical linguistics, language descent and linguistic family tree models; and a sociolinguistic perspective, identifying specific social contexts in which contact languages emerge.
