This skillfully crafted work...combines acute theoretical insight, deep understanding of a wide variety of typologically different languages, and impressive lucidity. It is a wonderful and valuable achievement."--Noam Chomsky. Whether all human languages are fundamentally the same or different has been a subject of debate for ages. This problem has deep philosophical implications: If languages are all the same, it implies a fundamental commonality--and thus mutual intelligibility--of human thought. We are now on the verge of solving this problem. Using a twenty-year-old theory proposed by the world's greatest living linguist, Noam Chomsky, researchers have found that the similarities among languages are more profound than the differences. Languages whose grammars seem completely incompatible may in fact be structurally almost identical, except for a difference in one simple rule. The discovery of these rules and how they may vary promises to yield a linguistic equivalent of the Periodic Table of the Elements: a single framework by which we can understand the fundamental structure of all human language. This is a landmark breakthrough both within linguistics, which will herewith finally become a full-fledged science, and in our understanding of the human mind.

評分語言學 8/100 All about parameters P.62 "Linguistics now seems to be in a stage similar in many ways to where chemistry was in the mid-nineteenth century, just prior to Mendeleyev. The key theoretical idea of the parameter is in place, together with an appreciation of how it can be used to solve linguistic problems."
評分作者是個吃貨,講語言老講到烤麵包的事情上去,但正因為他如此靈活地運用類比,把語言學中parameter這個概念講地和其他自然科學科目一樣透徹!
