About “Rules and Representations”

In this influential work, Noam Chomsky examines the nature of human cognitive capacities, particularly as they are expressed in language, arguing for the existence of a universal grammar that is genetically determined and structured in the human mind. He explores the principles of this universal grammar—its "rules and representations"—as well as the biological basis of language and the potential for studying mental structures using methods from the natural sciences.
