Sturtevant, Pronunciation of Greek and Latin
I have the text above, second edition (1940). Can anyone recommend something more recent? I can't imagine that there's been no progress in the subject since 1940...

Thanks, Hylander, for some reason these didn't come up in the search that I ran (not that I tried very hard, mind you). I might be able to get my school to pay for the Latin one, but if I want the Greek, it's up to me. Do you think they are worth having despite the bad paper?

Re: Sturtevant, Pronunciation of Greek and Latin
Mine is well-thumbed. But it depends on what you want it for. The new Cambridge grammar delivers the pronunciation advice without any of the reasoning or discussion. (Including "Cockney Belt", about which we had a thread recently.)
“One might get one’s Greek from the very lips of Homer and Plato." "In which case they would certainly plough you for the Little-go. The German scholars have improved Greek so much.”

I would like the reasoning and discussion.
