Reviews
“...points out the obscure boundary between morphology and syntax and provides examples of incorporation in various grammatical categories. Teachers, students, and scholars who study Mandarin word structure will find this monograph an excellent resource. Not only is this work of considerable theoretical value, but it is also of significant relevance to applied linguistics in the context of language teaching and learning.”
