Challenging traditional views of syntax, this survey questions the significance of hierarchical tree structures and head-dependent phrases. It presents a diverse range of syntactic relations, drawing on examples from English and other European languages. The book reviews previous syntactic theories, highlighting disagreements among linguists regarding specific constructions. It also addresses the complexities of various analyses and considers whether a simpler approach to syntax is needed. With a glossary for clarity, it serves as a valuable resource for students and researchers in linguistic theory.
