Syntactic Carpentry (published in 2005 by Erlbaum) provides an outline of an emergentist approach to syntax, illustrating how many core grammatical phenomena can be traced to the operation of an efficiency-driven processor whose primary goal is simply to reduce the burden on working memory. This theme is pursued and refined in several of the papers that can be downloaded from this site. The Handbook of Language Emergence (Erlbaum, 2015), co-edited with Brian MacWhinney, offers a broader perspective on emergentist work in cognitive science in general. A new book on this subject, Natural Syntax: An Emergentist Primer, is available for downloading from this site (see below).
