the notion that phonology is a branch of cognitive science
should own a copy of this book.' This review provides an
overview of the contents of The Harmonic Mind, focusing
on material of particular interest to phonologists and other
linguists. It also provides a comparison of Harmonic Grammar
with OT's Local Constraint Conjunction.
