Editorial Reviews
Review
"It offers a coherent view of the implications of the Minimalist Program for the theory and praxis of modularity.... The different contributions in Di Sciullo's book are a clear sign that the Minimalist Program has shed its former air of provisionality and is now heading confidently in what to all appearances is the right direction. Reinterpreted along the lines of the Minimalist Program, the concept of modularity of grammar is yielding results on the faculty of language that are every bit as exciting as those it produced in the early 1980's." --Canadian Journal of Linguistics
