Palmer Cambridge [England] ; New York Cambridge University Press 1994 xv, 259 p. 24 cm Frank Palmer's new book is a typological survey of grammatical roles, such as Agent, Patient, and Beneficiary, as well as grammatical relations, such as Subject, (Direct) Object and Indirect Object, which are familiar concepts in traditional grammars.
