名人推薦：

“Readers will find abundant rewards in this new addition to the functional literature on Chinese grammar. Collectively, its chapters cover cognitive, typological, diachronic, and usage-based approaches to linguistic structure. Individually, each essay makes a unique and significant contribution with a bold hypothesis, supported by exceptionally well-argued and richly exemplified analyses, which sheds thought-provoking new light on the relationship between form and function in Chinese.” -- Sandra A. Thompson, Professor of Linguistics, University of California, Santa Barbara

“This collection eloquently speaks for the most recent developments in the functional approaches to the study of Chinese linguistics. By bringing together some of the representative researchers in a comprehensive discussion of Chinese form and function, this book certainly brings an insightful and wide-ranging reflection on how the Chinese language works the way it does.” -- Chauncey C. Chu, Professor Emeritus of Chinese and Linguistics, University of Florida
