This volume provides the first general introduction to optimality theory -- arguably the linguistic theory of the 1990s. The book leads the reader to an understanding of optimality theory via the exploration and resolution of specific problems in phonology, morphology, and syntax, but presumes virtually no background knowledge in linguistics.
"This book does offer a well-rounded entry point into the theory for anyone with some basic training in linguistics, including researchers who wish to take a crash course in the theory." Second Language Research
