Review
A significant body of research on the motivations for and mechanisms of word order variation (e.g., case, the Extended Projection Principle (EPP) etc.) have dominated recent work in minimalist principles and parameters syntax. Roberts' book provides a very important addition to this canon of work, bringing in new evidence from a relatively understudied language. ... In addition to this important technical and theoretical contribution, Roberts' book fills a gap in the literature on the syntax of the Celtic languages. ...this is work of importance not only to Celticists and VSO-ologists, but also to any syntactician seriously considering the nature and variation in word order derivation and constituent licensing. (Linguist List)
