Their exposition combines insights from lexicalism and distributed morphology, and is expressed in terms accessible to scholars and advanced students. - unique exploration of interfaces of morphology with syntax and phonology- wide empirical scope with many new observations- theoretically innovative and important- accessible to students with chapters designed for use in teaching
