Moltmann presents a range of new empirical generalizations with data from English and a variety of other languages involving plurals, mass nouns, adnominal and adverbial modifiers such as as a whole, together, and alone, nominal and adverbial quanitfiers ranging over parts, and expressions of completion such as completely and partly. She develops a new theory of part structures which differs from traditional mereological theories in that the notion of an integrated whole plays a central role and in that the part structure of an entity is allowed to vary across different situations, perspectives, and dimensions.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Friederike Moltmann","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":43573480521789,"sku":"9780195095746","price":358.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/www.palmleaf.com.au\/products\/parts-and-wholes-in-semantics-9780195095746","provider":"Palmleaf","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
