The volume Locality represents a well-structured, consistent and coherent collection of papers... The volume is an extremely rewarding read, not only because the chapters in it are well-written, explaining how the issues discussed in each one of them relate to Luigi Rizzi's work and to other literature on the topic, but also because of the large pool of data analysed in them and the multitude of languages explored. This is what makes the present collection an equally exciting read for both students and scholars.
