- enhanced introduction discussing the basic principles and strategies utilized by world writing systems
- expanded to include more writing systems
- improved presentation of non-Roman scripts.
- organised into ancient, contemporary and autochthonous writing systems
- many new entries on fascinating and lesser-known writing systems
