Title: Great Grammar!
Review: I used this textbook in the grammar analysis class I had to have on my journey towards teaching certification. The book explores the four approaches to English grammar: Prescriptivism, Descriptivism, Generativism, and Performance. Most grammar taught in public schools is prescriptivist, even though most of us speak and write in a descriptivist way. Generativism and performance explore the way the brain basically spits out sentences. Generativism and performance are also more linguistical in approach, owing a great deal to Noam Chomsky.I found this book to be quite useful. It is informative, fairly easy to understand, and contains many valuable exercises. It's a great textbook to have for studying grammar and can be useful when studying linguistics.
