Greenberg's universals

Geetings to all,

Not being a trained linguist I am not familiar with Greenberg's Universals
but I am gathering that Druni (being an SOV language) violates quite a few of
them.

That may have a lot to do with the way that I created Druni.  Basically I
took features that I liked from all the languages that I knew.  Then I
fleshed it all out by creating words that had the type of sound that I liked.
 Obviously, a very amateur way of doing things but I am happy with the result.

What is the easiest way to get a copy of Greenberg's Universals?

Thanks
Jim H
