Recenzii
"Taken as a whole, the book is notable in three aspects. First of all, it has considerable significance for typological studies on the grounding phenomenon. [...] Second, as the first study to apply grounding theory in the study of Chinese discourse grammar, this work is both theoretically and methodologically rewarding for Chinese grammar study. [...] Third, the book is user-friendly because it is very well organized." ~ Yurong Zhao, Northeastern University of China, in Chinese Language and Discourse, Vol. 9/2 (2018), pp. 251–255
