 Realizational Morphology
Modern theories of morphology such as Realizational Morphology are not based on that flawed assumption.
It argues against morpheme-based approaches and presents a feature-based theory of lexical forms and a set of rules of exponence and referral for projecting combination of features onto surface forms.
I am under the impression that your book is committed to the existence of morphemes, minimal combinations of meaning and form.

But as the example "morpheme" reveals bound morphemes may become unbound "morph" has been adopted in linguistics for phonological realization of a morpheme and the "morph" was coined to describe a type visual effect done with computers.
A cranberry morpheme is one that exists in one bound form such as the of "cranberry".

Lexeme-Morpheme Base Morphology is a complete set of lexeme-based morphological theories and hypotheses including the following:
Lexeme-Morpheme Base Morphology (LMBM) is a variant of what Aronoff (1994) refers to as a 'lexeme-base' morphological theory.
The assumption of sign base morphology (Saussure 1916), results from the fact that the default procedure for the MS (spelling) component is to realize features in the order in which it encounters them.

Whereas lexeme based morphology starts from two decidedly unstructuralist assumptions: that the morpheme is not the basic unit of language and that morphology and syntax are not one and the same.
Bound morphemes are of two kinds- those which can stand alone, and are for some reason or another annexed to some other morpheme, and those which in all their ourrence are bound, and cannot stand alone.
Nida’s definition of morpheme matches with this definition, particularly when she says: morpheme is “the smallest meaningful unit in the structure of a language” (1944 : 4).

 Morphology (linguistics) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
In morpheme-based morphology, we analyze word forms as sequences of morphemes.
Instead of stating rules to combine morphemes into word forms, or to generate word-forms from stems, word-based morphology states generalizations that hold between the forms of inflectional paradigms.
According to this typology, some languages are isolating, and have little or no morphology; others are agglutinative, and their words tend to have lots of easily-separable morphemes; while yet others are fusional, because their inflectional morphemes are said to be "fused" together.

 Morphology (linguistics) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
However, examined against the light of the three general models of morphology described above, it is also clear that the classification is very much biased towards a morpheme-based conception of morphology.

 Morpheme - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
In Morpheme-based morphology, a morpheme is the smallest language unit that carries a semantic interpretation.
Morphemes existing in only one bound form are known as "cranberry" morphemes, from the "cran" in that very word.
Bound morphemes in general tend to be prefixes and suffixes.

 Null morpheme - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
In morpheme-based morphology, a null morpheme is a morpheme that is realized by a phonologically null affix (an empty string of phonological segments).
The existence of a null morpheme in a word can be theorized by contrast with other forms of the same word showing alternate morphemes.
A basic radical element plus a null morpheme is not the same as an uninflected word, though usage may make those equal in practice.

The third part, the Categories, contain lexemes and morphemes and groups the morphemes based on their meanings.
Determine whether a morpheme is a base or an affix (and a prefix or a suffix), inflectional or derivational, and free or bound.
An affix is a morpheme added to the beginning or end of a base morpheme in order to change either the word's meaning, the word's form class (such as making a verb an adverb), or its function in the sentence.

 Unsupervised Learning of the Morphology of a Natural Language
Harris' method is quite good as a heuristic for finding a good set of candidate morphemes, comparable in quality to the mutual information-based heuristic that I have used, and describe below.
Languages such as Hungarian and Finnish do not have this characteristic: the average number of morphemes per word is considerably greater than 2, and identification of the morphological system cannot be bootstrapped in such languages from the occurrences of stems and suffixes found in words of two morphemes.
The procedure described in Janssen (1992) and Flenner (1994, 1995) begins with a training corpus with morpheme boundaries inserted by a human, and hence the algorithm is not in the domain of unsupervised learning.

 Distributed Morphology
DM is piece-based in the sense that the elements of both syntax and of morphology are understood as discrete instead of as (the results of) morphophonological processes.
Separationism characterizes theories of morphology in which the mechanisms for producing the form of syntactico-semantically complex expressions are separated from, and not necessarily in a simple correspondence with, the mechanisms which produce the form ('spelling') of the correponding phonological expressions.
Distributed Morphology (DM) is a theory of the architecture of grammar first proposed in the early 1990s at MIT by Morris Halle, Alec Marantz and their students and colleagues including Eulalia Bonet, Rolf Noyer, Jim Harris, Heidi Harley, Andrea Calabrese, David Embick and others.

 LMBM: An Overview
Lexeme-Morpheme Base Morphology is a complete set of lexeme-based morphological theories and hypotheses including the following:
Lexeme-base morphology assumes that only the lexeme is a true linguistic sign where 'lexeme' is defined exclusively and explicitly as any and all noun, verb, and adjective stems.
Grammatical morphemes are the output of purely phonological operations independent of the semantic (grammatical) operations which they mark ('realize').

A contemporary morphologist would call this a "morpheme-based" theory; alternatives are lexeme-based morphology and word-based morphology.
A word may consist of two bound morphemes: the word "morpheme" itself illustrates this, since it consists, or traditionally consisted, of two bound morphemes ("morph" and "eme").
At the basic level, words are made of " morphemes." These are the smallest units of grammar: roots, prefixes, and suffixes.

The large number of Chinese characters is due to their logographic nature — for every morpheme there must be a symbol, and sometimes there are variant characters have developed for the same morpheme.
There have been suggestions that this was not designed for the Chinese language, or even for a Sino-Tibetan language, because it does not seem to reflect Chinese morphology accurately.
Most characters are based on other characters that were homonyms when the character was created.

Chinese Morphology (linguistics) is strictly bound to a set number of Syllable with a fairly rigid construction which are the Morpheme, the smallest building blocks, of the language.
Standard Mandarin is based on the Beijing dialect, which is the dialect of Mandarin (linguistics) as spoken in Beijing, and the governments intend for speakers of all Chinese speech varieties to use it as a common language of communication.
Most linguists classify all of the variations of Chinese as part of the Sino-Tibetan Language family and believe that there was an original language, called Proto-Sino-Tibetan, similar to Indo-European languages, from which the Sinitic and Tibeto-Burman languages descended.

 Lexeme Based Morphology
Aronoff (1994) distinguishes a lexeme based morphology from morpheme based theories.
Lexeme-based morphology assumes that only lexemes, derived or underived, are signs, and that affixes, reduplication, revowelling, metathesis, subtraction, stem mutation, and the like, are means of phonologically marking independent derivational operations which a lexeme might have undergone.
The latter 'reduce[s] language to simplex signs, each of which is an arbitrary union of sound and meaning', i.e.

Empty morphemes represent affixation without derivation; zero morphemes are derivations without affixation.
