A Student's Introduction to English Grammar

(^294) Further reading
Betty Bimer & Gregory Ward discuss information packaging (Ch. 15) in their
Infonnation Status and Noncanonical Wo rd Order in English (Amsterdam: John
Benjamins, 1998), and many further references to the rest of the literature are cited
there. Our treatment of inflection in Ch. 16 owes much to F. R. Palmer, The English
Ve rb (2nd edn; London: Longman, 1987), and Peter Matthews, Morphology
(2nd edn; CUP, 1991). A linguistic defence of this lexeme-based rather than mor­
pheme-based view of morphology is given by Stephen R. Anderson, A-Morphous
Morphology (CUP, 1992).
