For a long time, linguistic research implicitly presupposed lexicalism. The lexical item in syntactic operations determines the syntactic structure and semantics.

The book consists of five chapters (followed by three appendices), published by Cambridge University Press in 2015. This article first introduces the main contents of each chapter, and then make one
