From the Back Cover

Alessandra Giorgi and Giuseppe Longobardi's important study of the argument structure of lexical projections, in particular of Noun Phrases, makes substantial advances in this relatively neglected area. Working within a Government and Binding framework, the authors present strong new arguments in favour of the existence of empty categories, and evidence for the correct understanding of word-order parameters and of Chomsky's Projection Principle.
