This book examines the syntax of direct object noun phrases in
English within the Principles and Parameters, specifically
Chomsky's Minimalist Program, approach to generative grammar. The
main focus is on the phrase structural positions of object noun
phrases at the various levels of representation, and secondarily on
the relationship between structural position and semantic
interpretation. Supported by a variety of empirical and conceptual
arguments, the central claim of the book is that direct object noun
phrases in English surface in a VP-external position; a secondary
claim is that while in the overt syntax direct objects appear
VP-externally, their position at the level of logical form varies
depending on interpretation. Four basic constructions are studied:
simple transitive clauses, transitive clauses with prepositional
objects, the "raising to object" construction, and the "double
object" construction. This book will be of interest to scholars in
the areas of phrase structure syntax, English and Germanic syntax,
the syntax-semantics interface, and all areas of generative
approaches to syntax.

Runner's World
Even if you have benefited from the advice of running experts,
you can gain even more knowledge by keeping and studying your own
personal running record.
Inside this handy diary, Runner's World provides the outline.
You fill in the facts about each day's run, such as your pace, the
distance you ran, your pulse rate, and weather conditions. You set
the goals--to run every day or twice a week, to log two or ten
miles a day, to train for a 10K or a marathon--then note your
progress. You discover what really works, and what doesn't.
In addition to a useful format and generous space for charting
an entire year's running, the "Runner's World Training Diary" also
includes:
Charts to record racing results, best times, and a year's
running at a glance
Tables listing pacing rates, wind-chill readings, and metric
distance conversions
Warm-up exercises and valuable running hints
A helpful table showing the caloric cost of running
Pages for training records, schedule planning, and much
more!
