Synopsis
This textbook is designed to introduce students with no previous linguistic training to the theory and analysis of generative grammar. It both teaches students the techniques and enables them to understand how grammatical theory is developed in syntactic analysis. It also introduces the most recent far-reaching changes in generative grammar and provides a historical perspective on the development of the theory.

Review
Borsley has given us a new kind of book: one that combines the best features of other introductory texts on syntax with serious discussion of alternatives to transformational grammar. Maybe we can at last hope for a generation of linguists trained to live in the real world of many theories. (Richard Hudson, Professor of Linguistics, Universi )
