    • Efficiency and Complexity in Grammars, Hardcover by Hawkins, John A., ISBN 0199252688, ISBN-13 9780199252688, Brand New, Free shipping in the US John Hawkins demonstrates a clear link between how languages are used and the conventions of their grammars. He sets out a theory in which performance shapes grammars and accounts for the variation patterns found in the world's languages. He backs this up with evidence from a wide array of languages. He also considers the profound consequences of this correspondence for explanations of language change and evolution, and for models of performance and acquisition. His book is of fundamental importance for linguistic theory.
