The NEW LIGHTS ON INDO-EUROPEAN COMPARATIVE GRAMMAR presents the results of the author`s researches of two decades on different aspects of Indo-European phonology and morphology. As for instance only the short primary vowels have been shown to the original ones and consequently only three abault series as against six have been established, and e is shown as a weak grade vowel of short primary vowels, which eliminates the reconstruction of schwa secundum. The origion of the long secondary vowels are traced to positional variation aas against the contraction of laryngeals with corresponding short ones, nad the six series of positional variation of secondary vowels has been shown with detailed illustrations. The development of IE labio-velars before font vowels in different IE languages has been linked up otgether. The seed of cerebralisation in Sanskrit has been traced up to the Satem stage. The work concludes is summing up the basis of the Indo- Hittite theory with a Critical evaluation of the same.
The Work also deals with all aspects of the Laryngeal Theory from the point of view of the theory itself and theory has been quite elaborately examined in a spread out manner with reference to its application by the laryngealists to different aspects of Indo-European Grammer at appropiate places in due order.
Though the work is undoubtedly an outcome of higher research , yet the beginners will fond it intresting and helpful, since several intricacies of -European Grammer have been dealt with.
