Island phenomena are a central topic in generative grammar, especially because of principled exceptions to these general extraction constraints.

The volume develops a multifactorial model to account for these effects without appealing to universal extraction conditions and argues that the relative acceptability of the underlying proposition determines acceptability across sentence types.
