Cambridge University Press Analysing English Sentences
Book SynopsisThoroughly revised and updated throughout, Analysing English Sentences, 2nd edition is richly supported with exercises, hints and chapter summaries. Assuming no prior knowledge of English syntax or syntactic theory, and accompanied with a range of online resources for instructors, this text is an ideal learning and teaching tool.Trade Review'Masterly, challenging and radically innovative.' Neil Smith, University College London'I learned the basics of syntactic argumentation by reading (and doing the exercises in) Andrew Radford's 1981 Transformational Syntax. Analysing English Sentences is an excellent continuation of that tradition.' Chris Collins, New York University'Another outstanding textbook from Radford - it is very up to date and takes students through the complexities of syntactic theory and how to do syntactic analysis in the most manageable way possible.' Alison Henry, University of Ulster'Andrew Radford's new edition of Analysing English Sentences is, like his previous textbooks, unparalleled for clarity, thoroughness and critical depth. In addition to offering an outstanding, step-by-step guide to the key notions of current syntactic theory, it provides through its exercise material a unique tool for students to assess the merits of a syntactic argument and to construct their own analyses.'

Cambridge University Press How to Talk Language Science with Everybody
Book SynopsisDo you want to talk about the linguistic research that you think is important but you don''t know where to start? Language is a topic that is relevant to everyone, and linguists are often asked to speak publicly about their research, to a range of lay audiences in radio, the media, politics, festivals and fairs, schools, museums and public libraries.

It is illustrated with a wealth of examples from real-life scenarios, and includes chapter-by-chapter worksheets, enabling you to make your own fun and interesting language science activities to share with others.Trade Review'For those beguiled with the wonders of language, and eager to share their enchantment, this is a most welcome guide.'
