The Evolution of Grammar: Tense, Aspect, and Modality in the Languages of the World 2nd edition

This study focuses on the use and meaning of grammatical markers of tense, aspect and modality, and identifies a universal set of grammatical categories. It argues that the same paths of change occur in languages in different phyla and that movement along these paths is in one direction only.
