Summary:

Root syntax is influential in building the lexicon in linguistic theory, typically in Distributed Morphology, and the generative model of minimal computation. Tested on Arabic, this book presents a comprehensive view of word formation and argument structure, providing robust evidence that favors root-based, rather than stem-based derivations.
