In this bibliography, our purpose is to provide references which will allow you to pursue any interests of which you have become aware in reading our book. We have divided the references into three sections: Section I. Transformational Grammar Section 11. Therapy Section Ill. Modeling/Formal Systems/Epistemology In each of these sections, we identify a small number of works which we have found particularly useful in developing our own models. The references given are not exhaustive, nor are they the only places where the ideas they contain can be found. We hope you enjoy your reading. If you know of other reference works which you have found particularly clear and useful in your experience in these areas, we would each appreciate hearing from you about them. Finally, if you wish to pursue some idea or line of thought or experience set off by our book and the bibliography i s inadequate for your purposes, write to us and we will each try to suggest references for you.

I. Transformational Grammar A. Basic References Bach, E. Syntactic Theory. New York: Holt, Rinehart and Winston, Inc., 1974. A carefully presented overview of syntax as done by transformationalists. Chomsky, N. Syntactic Structures. The Hague: Mouton, 1957. The book whicp established the transformational model in linguistics; the style Chomsky uses is difficult for many readers. The portions of the book most connected with the Meta-model are the Preface; Chapters 2, 3,5,6, 8; and the Summary. Chomsky, N. Aspects of the Theory of Syntax. Cambridge, Mass.: M IT Press, 1965. This i s one of the most accessible descriptions of the linguistic model from which we have borrowed heavily. Again, some readers find the author's style difficult. We especially recommend Chapters 1 and 2. Chomsky, N. Language and Mind. New York: Harcourt Brace Jovanovich, Inc., 1968. Four lectures which Chomsky gave as a visiting professor at Berkeley; less technical than his other two works we list. Grinder, J., and Elgin, S. A Guide to Transformational Grammar. New York: Holt, Rinehart and Winston, 1973. A very comprehensive overview of the entire field of transformational grammar; includes summaries of, and commentaries on, Chomsky's Syntactic Structures and Aspects. See especially Chapters 1, 2,4,5,6, 7, 8, 10, and 13. Jacobs, R., and Rosenbaum, P. English Transformational Grammar. Waltham, Mass.: Ginn/Blaisdell, 1968. A very readable work as an introduction to the field; not particularly comprehensive. Langac ke r, R. Language and Its Structure. New Y ork : Harcourt Brace Jovanovich, Inc., 1967. A readable introduction which treats language both by the transformational model and more generally. Lyons, J. Introduction to Theoretical Linguistics. Cambridge, England: Cambridge University Press. A scholarly work which presents an overview of language in general; includes a section on the transformational model.
