The article reviews a book titled "The Grammar of Body-Part Expressions. A View from the Americas" edited by Roberto Zariquiey and Pilar M. Valenzuela. The book explores the less-explored grammar of body parts from a rich American perspective, focusing on South American languages with some mention of Mesoamerica and North American languages. The chapters in the book are structured topically, covering categorialization, lexicalization, semantic processes, possessive constructions, and incorporation of body-part terms in various indigenous languages of the Americas. The volume aims to contribute significantly to linguistic typology and cognitive linguistics, offering detailed descriptive accounts and analyses of body-part terms in diverse languages.
