"Perlmutter is a true master of grammatical argumentation and a very important linguistic theorist. This volume of high-quality papers, dedicated to him by thirty of the many scores who have felt his influence and profited from his teaching, is a truly worthy tribute--a book for syntacticians to treasure."--Geoffrey Pullum, Department of Linguistics, University of Edinburgh
"This volume is a collection of fine examples of how to investigate the structures of languages--a fitting tribute to David Perlmutter's research, his teaching, and above all his inspiration to a whole generation of linguists."--Jorge Hankamer, Department of Linguistics, University of California, Santa Cruz
