From the Back Cover

This collection takes the exciting step of examining natural language phenomena from the perspectives of both computational linguistics and formal semantics. Computational linguistics has, for historical reasons, concentrated primarily upon the design and implementation of computational models for handling the form of natural languages, not upon questions of meaning. Formal semantics, on the other hand, attempts to characterise the formal frameworks in which theories of meaning can be stated, but has not focused on the associated computational issues.
