Dictionaries usually give only brief treatment to etymologies and even etymological dictionaries often do not lavish on them the attention which many deserve. To help fill the gap, the author deals with several etymologically problematic words in various Germanic, Jewish, Romance, and Slavic languages. Since this book also discusses methodology, it may be considered an introduction to the science, art, and craft of etymology.
