To The Readers:
Thanks to everyone who responded to our request for recently published
books on general syntax. We would like to extend this request. In particular,
we are interested in books that provide reviews or comparisons of
different/multiple theories of syntax. Thanks again for all the responses
we’ve received so far. This is what we’ve found so far. I have reviews of
most of these books if anyone is interested.
