The development of a theory of linguistics
This study examines how Noam Chomsky developed a linguistics theory that led to new discussions and debates about language. Challenging Chomsky: The Generative Garden Game looks at the role the linguist's theory has had in the study of language. The book explores Chomsky's beliefs about language and mind, as well as the relationship between linguistics and philosophy. The author takes a satirical approach to addressing the challenges that arose to Chomsky's ideas.
