Description: "Chametzky has written a lucid and penetrating overview of recent theories of phrase structure, which addresses issues that are both fundamental and daunting. He carefully separates recent proposals into their component parts, revealing how various theories differ, what properties they share, and where they fail to live up to their minimalist claims." Peggy Speas, University of Massachusetts, Amherst "This book could have been called 'Every Question you ever had about Phrase Structure and were Afraid to Ask'. Both thought-provoking and provocative, it will interest any serious student of the GB tradition and how it shaped the emerging Minimalist Program." Juan Uriagereka, University of Maryland, College Park
