Mind design and minimal syntax

Introduces generative grammar and asks what it tells us about the human mind. This work unites modern generative linguistics with the philosophies of mind and language. It introduces Chomsky's program of a 'minimalist' syntax as a novel explanatory vision of the human mind. It is aimed at scholars in linguistics, philosophy, and cognitive science.
