A dim monocular view of Universal-Grammar access
Derek Bickerton · Behavioral and Brain Sciences · 1996
Abstract This target article's handling of theory and data and the range of evidence surveyed for its main contention fall short of normalBBSstandards. However, the contention itself is reasonable and can be supported if one rejects the “knowledge” metaphor for linguistic competence and accepts that “syntactic principles” are no more than the way the brain does language.
