From the Back Cover

"Deeply informed, lucid, and careful, this revision of the outstanding original carries the student from core concepts to topics at the borders of inquiry. A most valuable contribution."
Noam Chomsky, Institute Professor (retired), Department of Linguistics and Philosophy, MIT "

This truly excellent textbook competently guides students to understand not just the basics of generative syntax but also richness of universals and parametric variation in a clear and thoughtprovoking way."
Ken Hiraiwa, Department of English, Meiji Gakuin University

Authoritative coverage spans phrase structure, the lexicon, Case theory, movement, covert movement, locality conditions, VP shells, and control.
