Formal systems that describe computations over syntactic structures
occur frequently in computer science. Logic programming provides a
natural framework for encoding and animating such systems. However,
these systems often embody variable binding, a notion that must be
treated carefully at a computational level. This book aims to show
that a programming language based on a simply typed version of
higher-order logic provides an elegant, declarative means for
providing such a treatment. Three broad topics are covered in
pursuit of this goal. First, a proof-theoretic framework that
supports a general view of logic programming is identified. Second,
an actual language called Prolog is developed by applying this view
to higher-order logic. Finally, a methodology for programming with
specifications is exposed by showing how several computations over
formal objects such as logical formulas, functional programs, and
-terms and -calculus expressions can be encoded in Prolog.
