Nowadays, the term `applied logic' has a very wide meaning, as  numerous applications of logical methods in computer science, formal  linguistics and other fields testify. Such applications are by no  means restricted to the use of known logical techniques: at its best,  applied logic involves a back-and-forth dialogue between logical  theory and the problem domain.\u003cbr\u003e   The papers focus on the  application of logic to the study of natural language, in syntax,  semantics and pragmatics, and the effect of these studies on the  development of logic. In the last decade, the dynamic nature of  natural language has been the most interesting challenge for  logicians. Dynamic semantics is here applied to new topics, the  dynamic approach is extended to syntax, and several methodological  issues in dynamic semantics are systematically investigated.  Other  methodological issues in the formal studies of natural language are  discussed, such as the need for types, modal operators and other  logical operators in the formal framework. Further articles address  the scope of these methodological issues from other perspectives  ranging from cognition to computation. \u003cbr\u003e The volume presents papers  that are interesting for graduate students and researchers in the  field of logic, philosophy of language, formal semantics and  pragmatics, and computational linguistics. \u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eBook Details\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/strong\u003e Springer\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePublication Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e 1995-03-31\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFormat:\u003c\/strong\u003e Hardcover\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/strong\u003e 9780792334323\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 392\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"Springer","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":45416680947852,"sku":"9780792334323","price":152.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0710\/9545\/1788\/files\/9780792334323_eb555cf7-9d00-4e62-ae03-792d260d445d.jpg?v=1768917720","url":"https:\/\/fh90cf-fv.myshopify.com\/products\/9780792334323","provider":"Late Knight Books and Services, LLC","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
