Studies in Old Prussian remedies the lack of a single source (volume) which critically surveys the entire literature devoted to the subject since the end of World War II. It provides a thorough review of the literature of the origin and history of the Old Prussian people as well as comprehensive review of the recent literature devoted to the morphology and phonology of the language. As a result, this volume has a unique value to students of Old Prussian.

Of great importance is the inclusion of a critical analysis of the newly discovered Basel epigram and the new version of Simon Grunau's vocabulary.
