Books by Ian Press

Aiming to provide an all-round and accessible description of the language, this book gives a presentation of grammar as an intellectual exercise and lots of drills and exercises which are intended to be stimulating and interesting.

This text works its way from a presentation of the sound structure of Russian, through an examination of the spelling system, the interface between sounds and forms, and the issue of the Church Slavonic and East Slavonic Russian, to an exploration of over sixty word families.

"Colloquial Ukrainian", specially written by an experienced teacher for self-study or class use, offers you a step-by-step approach to written and spoken Ukrainian. No prior knowledge of the language is required.

Ukranian: A Comprehensive Grammar is the first true reference grammar of Ukranian published outside the Ukraine. It will be the standard reference work for years to come.
