"...clearly a great resource, with its main strength being the creation of a historical context for current P&P approaches to constituency, and libraries should have a copy." - Dirk Bury Linguistics
"...a very good book. Carnie writes in a clear and lucid style. ..an excellent survey of phrase structure in generative grammar...very well written and interesting and it definitely deserves a place on every syntactician's bookshelf." - Fredrik Heinat, The Linguistlist
