Advance praise: 'Masterly, challenging and radically innovative.' Neil Smith, University College London Advance praise: '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 Advance praise: '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 Advance praise: '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.' Guglielmo Cinque, Ca' Foscari University, Venice
