The Syntax of Adjuncts
This book proposes a theory of the distribution of adverbial adjuncts in a Principles and Parameters framework, claiming that there are few syntactic principles specific to adverbials; rather, for the most part, adverbials adjoin freely to any projection.

This book is for practising phrasal verbs with adverbs. Fourteen adverbial particles were chosen and the various ways in which they adjust the meaning of verbs are explained. There are exercises to show the typical contexts and different syntactic designs used. The book is essentially on the meaning of phrasal verbs. This book does not deal with prepositional verbs.

Radical Construction Grammar: Syntactic Theory in Typological Perspective
This book is based on the results of research in language typology, and motivated by the need for a theory to explain them. Croft proposes intimate links between syntactic and semantic structures, and argues that the basic elements of any language are not syntactic but rather syntactic-semantic "Gestalts". He puts forward a new approach to syntactic representation and a new model of how language and languages work.

The relationship between verbs and their arguments is a widely debated topic in linguistics. This comprehensive survey provides an overview of this important research area, exploring theories of how a verb's semantics can determine the morphosyntactic realization of its arguments. Assuming a close connection between verb meaning and syntactic structure, the analysis constructs a bridge between lexical-semantic and syntactic research.It will be invaluable to research in syntax, semantics, and related fields.
