The Derivation of VO and OV

To appear from John Benjamins, Amsterdam

The volume is based on a workshop held at the University of Tromsø in May 1998. You can see a program for that workshop, or the conference report that I wrote for Glot International, which includes summaries of all the talks (it appeared in Glot volume 3, issue 9/10).
