This new edition of Andrew Radford's outstanding resource for students is a step-by-step, practical introduction to English syntax and syntactic principles, written by a globally-renowned expert in the field. Assuming little or no prior background in syntax, Radford outlines key concepts and how they can be used to describe various aspects of English sentence structure. Each chapter contains core modules focusing on a specific topic, a summary recapitulating the main points of the chapter, and a bibliographical section providing extensive references to original source material. This edition has been extensively updated, with new analyses, new exercise materials, new references and a brand-new chapter included on adjuncts. Students will benefit enormously from the extensive online Workbook, which contains a vast amount of exercise material for each module, and teachers will value the comprehensive Answerbook, and extensive PowerPoints outlining module contents and Workbook answers.
