A new Oxford Handbook dedicated to the languages of the Caucasus appeared this month. It contains several contributions from members of the Linguistic Convergence Laboratory. Nina Dobrushina, Michael Daniel and Yuri Koryakov contributed an introductory chapter on Languages and Sociolinguistics of the Caucasus. Timur Maisak wrote the general chapter about Nakh-Daghestanian languages with Dmitry Ganenkov, Johanna Nichols co-authored a chapter on Chechen and Ingush, and Yury Lander wrote a chapter about Northwest Caucasian languages with Peter Arkadiev. The handbook is now available online and will appear in print next month.
