A Resource-light Approach to Morpho-syntactic tagging is a book authored by Anna Feldman and Jirka Hana by Rodopi Press (now Brill) in 2010. In this book, the researchers  present a new approach to create morphosyntactic taggers by projecting  to a target language a contextualized morphological analyzer that was built for a separate source language, when both source and target belong to the same language family (Slavic, Romance, etc.). The authors succeed at building competitive morphological analysis systems for the target languages they consider (Russian, Catalan, and Portuguese), while expending a minimum of effort to construct specialized resources for these targets.

This book touches upon a number of topics: typology, morphology, corpus linguistics, contrastive linguistics, linguistic annotation, computational linguistics and Natural Language Processing (NLP).

The book was well-received and was reviewed in a number of journals: e.g., https://www.mitpressjournals.org/doi/pdf/10.1162/coli_r_00042, https://academic.oup.com/dsh/article-abstract/25/3/358/974759?redirectedFrom=fulltext, http://linguistlist.org/pubs/reviews/get-review.cfm?subid=3795757
