As we have defined it, the series will offer book-length studies in lin¬ guistics and neighboring fields that further the exploration of man’s ability to manipulate symbols. It will pursue the same editorial goals as its com¬ panion journal, Linguistic Inquiry, and will complement it by providing a format for in-depth studies beyond the scope of the professional article. By publishing such studies, we hope the series will answer a need for intensive and detailed research that sheds new light on current theoretical issues and provides a new dimension for their resolution. Toward this end it will present books dealing with the widest range of languages and address¬ ing the widest range of theoretical topics. From time to time and with the same ends in view, the series will include collections of significant articles covering single and selected subject areas and works primarily for use as textbooks. Like Linguistic Inquiry, Current Studies in Linguistics will seek to present work of theoretical interest and excellence. Samuel Jay Keyser
