This textbook is intended for graduate students in computer science
and linguistics who are interested in developing expertise in
natural language processing (NLP) and in those aspects of
artificial intelligence which are concerned with computer models
oflanguage comprehension. The text is somewhat different from a
number of other excellent textbooks in that its foci are more on
the linguistic and psycho linguistic prerequisites and on
foundational issues concerning human linguistic behavior than on
the description of the extant models and algorithms. The goal is to
make the student, undertaking the enormous task of developing
computer models for NLP, well aware of the major diffi culties and
unsolved problems, so that he or she will not begin the task (as it
has often been done) with overoptimistic hopes or claims about the
generalizability of models, when such hopes and claims are incon
sistent either with some aspects of the formal theory or with known
facts about human cognitive behavior. Thus, I try to enumerate and
explain the variety of cognitive, linguistic, and pragmatic data
which must be understood and formalized before they can be
incorporated into a computer model."
