«'A radically new and highly promising approach, from a generative angle, to the question of what is universal and what is language specific in the domain of linguistic categories.' Guglielmo Cinque, Università Ca' Foscari, Venice»
«'Martina Wiltschko has synthesized her broad typological experience in syntax and semantics into an exciting new proposal for thinking about the universals of clause structure. Her new book builds on past empirical results, but at the same time breaks with old dogmas to create a book which should stimulate major advances for the field. Required reading for syntacticians of all stripes.' Gillian Ramchand, University of Tromsø»
