Rezensionen

"One should not confuse simplicity with absence of strategy, lack of planification or -even less- a simplistic approach to a problem. The monograph The fundamentally simple logic of language, by Luis H. González, is a prime example of the type of work that, through a deep understanding of the matter, is able to produce a simple explanation of a set of phenomena that is anything but simplistic."
