Reviews

<br> Well written and lively, with interesting problem sets. Professor Napoli has managed to make intelligible a difficult subject without talking down to students, or assuming vast prior knowledge. --Marilyn Silva, California State University, Hayward<br> A splendid textbook. I especially like Ms Napoli's tone and her inductive approach....I also like the fact that [she] consistently presents one theory and does not try to be eclectic; her emphasis is on analysis and drawing conclusions. Great! --R.M.R. Hall, Queens College, City University of New York<br> She has filled a desperate need in the field--a book that is both readable and up-to-date. Readers have much to gain from Napoli's book, and for them, it will be interesting to see how the current formulation of the theory handles what had been problems for the earlier version. --Language<br>
