Lexical Semantics, Syntax and Event StructureLexical Semantics, Syntax and Event Structure

This book focuses on the linguistic representation of temporality in the verbal domain and its interaction with the syntax and semantics of verbs, arguments, and modifiers. Leading scholars explore the division of labour between syntax, compositional semantics, and lexical semantics in the encoding of event structure, encompassing event participants and the temporal properties associated with events.

This is the first time I have bought this and I was very impressed with the content. All the articles are interesting and informative and most of the materials used are readily available in the UK.
It is naturally quite Americanised but still relevant to the UK. I would encourage anyone interested in crafting altered art.

The Questions to Ask Before You Jump Into BedThe Questions to Ask Before You Jump Into Bed

If you are a human being, BUY THIS BOOK. Ms. Seale writes with profound knowledge about a subject we must all master if we are to find the right mate and a fulfilling relationship. The insight Ms. Seale provides is born of experience and thorough research. We are led gently through the "10 Questions," learning as we go about ourselves and that is the author's main point: We must know ourselves well, the good and the bad, before we can know others and most definitely before we choose a long-term mate.
