Noam Chomsky's first book on syntactic structures is one of the
first serious attempts on the part of a linguist to construct
within the tradition of scientific theory-construction a
comprehensive theory of language which may be understood in the
same sense that a chemical, biological theory is understood by
experts in those fields. It is not a mere reorganization of the
data into a new kind of library catalogue, nor another specualtive
philosophy about the nature of man and language, but rather a
rigorus explication of our intuitions about our language in terms
of an overt axiom system, the theorems derivable from it, explicit
results which may be compared with new data and other intuitions,
all based plainly on an overt theory of the internal structure of
languages; and it may well provide an opportunity for the
application of explicity measures of simplicity to decide
preference of one form over another form of grammar.
