Starets’ work, which also includes a focus on specific linguistic difficulties such as aspect, mood, prepositions and word order, is an excellent review of a fair number of theories and approaches, whose usefulness and applications he sums up in his last chapter in eleven short conclusions. While at times repetitive in regards to contextualization and culture, the book is nonetheless valuable in its clear presentation of influential linguistic principles spanning over a hundred years.
