'A fascinating exploration of core concepts in Chomsky's Minimalist Programme. I hugely enjoyed Al-Mutairi's fresh look at the issues, even where I disagreed with him. Thought provoking and fun.' David Adger, Queen Mary, University of London 'The depth and critical rigour with which Al-Mutairi exposes both Chomsky's work and those arguments that have been brought against the strong minimalist theory will ensure that linguistics researchers and new students gain a detailed insight into the groundbreaking work that has already been done for them. They will also discover how far the ramifications of linguistics reach into other disciplines. Recommended.'
