Analysing English Sentences provides a concise and clear introduction to current
work in syntactic theory, drawing on the key concepts of Chomsky's Minimalist
Program. Assuming little or no prior knowledge of syntax or minimalism, Radford
outlines the core concepts and leading ideas and how they can be used to describe
various aspects of the syntax of English. A diverse range of topics is covered,
including syntactic structure, null constituents, head movement, case and
agreement and split projections. Using Radford's trademark approach and writing
style, the book is intensive and progressive in nature, introducing grammatical
concepts and working in stages towards more complex phenomena.
