Summary
Roca offers an overview of the post-SPE theory of generative phonology. This is ideal for linguists not specialising in phonology who want to keep abreast of the latest developments in the subject.Generative Phonology offers an overview of the post-SPE theory of generative phonology and is ideal for linguists not specialising in phonology who want to keep abreast of the latest developments in the subject.
