Just pretend the title is _Describing Grammar_ or _Describing A Language (except for the phonology)_ Some of my other favorite books are in a series from Cambridge U. Press that includes: _Gender_ by Greville Corbett _Number_ by Greville Corbett _Tense_ by Berbard Comrie _Aspect_ by Bernard Comrie _Case_ by Barry Blake _Definiteness_ by Christopher Lyons _Ergativity_ by RMW Dixon If any of those topics interest you, you should find the appropriate book.
