The primary units of meaning in the use and comprehension of
language are speech acts of the type called illocutionary acts. In
Foundations of Illocutionary Logic John Searle and Daniel
Vanderveken presented the first formalized logic of a general
theory of speech acts. In Meaning and Speech Acts Daniel
Vanderveken further develops the logic of speech acts and the logic
of propositions to construct a general semantic theory of natural
languages. Volume I, Principles of Language Use, explains the
general principles that connect meaning, reason, thought and speech
acts in the semantic structure of language. It presupposes no
detailed knowledge of logical formalism, and will be accessible to
a large readership of students and scholars from philosophy,
lingustics, cognitive psychology and computer science. Volume II,
Formal Semantics of Success and Satisfaction uses the resources of
philosophical and mathematical logics to develop a formalization of
the laws of the semantic theory advanced in Volume I. It will be of
interest to theoretical linguists and those involved in
mathematical logic and artificial intelligence.
