| Summary, etc |
Grammar as Science offers an introduction to syntax as an exercise in scientific theory construction.<br/><br/>It covers such core topics in syntax as phrase structure, constituency, the lexicon, inaudible elements, movement rules, and transformational constraints, while emphasizing scientific reasoning skills. The individual units are organized thematically into sections that highlight important components of this enterprise, including choosing between theories, constructing explicit arguments for hypotheses, and the conflicting demands that push us toward expanding the technical toolkit on the one hand and constraining it on the other.<br/><br/>This book is constructed as a “laboratory science” course in which students actively experiment with linguistic data.<br/><br/>It is intended for students majoring in linguistics as well as nonlinguistics majors who are taking the course to fulfill academic requirements. |
