adam_text | Introducing some of the foundational concepts, principles and techniques in the
formal semantics of natural language, Elements of Formal Semantics outlines the
mathematical principles that underlie linguistic meaning. Making use of a wide range of
concrete English examples, the book presents the most useful tools and concepts of
formal semantics in an accessible style and includes a variety of practical exercises so
that readers can learn to utilise these tools effectively. For readers with an elementary
background in set theory and linguistics or with an interest in mathematical modelling,
this fascinating study is an ideal introduction to natural language semantics. Designed
as a quick yet thorough introduction to one of the most vibrant areas of research
in modern linguistics today, this volume reveals the beauty and elegance of the
mathematical study of meaning.
