Andrea Moro

The Equilibrium of Human Syntax (eBook, PDF)

Symmetries in the Brain

• Format: PDF

Produktbeschreibung

This book assembles a collection of papers in two different domains: formal syntax and neurolinguistics. Here Moro provides evidence that the two fields are becoming more and more interconnected and that the new fascinating empirical questions and results in the latter field cannot be obtained without the theoretical base provided by the former.
