[plt-scheme] Re: Novice needs help writing function

Another place where recursion comes up regularly is in linguistics. A
sentence is a noun phrase followed by a verb phrase. But both noun
phrases and verb phrases can contain other sentences, which each
contain a noun phrase and verb phrase and...well, you get the picture.
Unfortunately, I can't at this moment think of a linguistics text that
treats linguistic recursion in a fun way. You might try some of Steven
Pinker's popular texts (The Language Instinct is a good one) and
there's a great book by Randy Allen Harris called The Linguistic Wars,
but I don't think either of them spends more than a few pages on the
concept.
