Logic, Language and Computation
Synopsis
This collection of papers offers a broad account of many topics in the study of logic, language and information. In particular, it addresses two important themes: how to handle quantification in natural language; and how to isolate genuine "logics of information". After the editor's introduction, which presents an overview of the interdisciplinary field, the collection begins with a group of fairly philosophical papers which address current issues in formal semantics from a logical perspective. It then moves on to papers which straddle the border between formal semantics and logic, and finishes with purely logical papers focusing on some non-classical logics.
