Hello to you all, I'm just approaching my second year of an English Language course; and have become aware that there are no unchanging absolutes in language. I would like to read something 'authoritative' about this matter and would appreciate any advice or information about what I should/could be reading.
Regards Jim90

I'd suggest starting with something by David Crystal. He is acknowledged as an expert on the evolution of English, and his many books are readable by a layperson. His Wikipedia page has links to various sources such as his home page and blog.
