A student's introduction to English grammar / Rodney Huddleston, Geoffrey K. Pullum, Brett Reynolds.
"In a sense, you already know English grammar. You must, in some unconscious way, if you're reading this. But being able to do something is different from understanding exactly what's being done. Knowing how to walk isn't the same as appreciating the anatomy of the human leg. The study of grammar involves developing an explicit account of how sentences are put together"-- Provided by publisher.
