Reviews

the first systemic attempt to proivide a comprehensive functional account of the connections among all subordination types in terms of overall implicational hierarchies. To my mind, Cristofaro accomplishes this task with flying colours ... extremely well-written as well as user-friendly Francisco Gonzalvez-Garcia, University of Almeria, Folia Linguistica ... a major cross-linguistic, typological study of subordination ... impressive in its scope ... an important study which is bound to stimulate further research on subordination, whether in individual languages or cross-linguistically.
