Newspapers & Magazines
The publication of the 5th edition of English Syntax and Argumentation is a testimony to Aarts' extraordinary successful tour de force of syntactic argumentation. Aarts has managed to account for many abstract syntax concepts in a way that is truly enlightening for students and instructors alike. The addition of a new chapter on 'information packaging', an answer key, and the lucidity of the analysis put this text in a class of its own. * Najib Jarad, University of Sharjah, United Arab Emirates * The newly added chapter on Information Packaging constitutes a very welcome addition to the already convincing introduction to English syntax and argumentation. All key terms are now printed in bold italics, which makes them easy to identify. Students and instructors alike appreciate the new answer key. * Daniela Schroeder, University of Hamburg, Germany *
