Originally published in 1973, this book shows that methods
developed for the semantics of systems of formal logic can be
successfully applied to problems about the semantics of natural
languages; and, moreover, that such methods can take account of
features of natural language which have often been thought
incapable of formal treatment, such as vagueness, context
dependence and metaphorical meaning. Parts 1 and 2 set out a class
of formal languages and their semantics. Parts 3 and 4 show that
these formal languages are rich enought to be used in the precise
description of natural languages. Appendices describe some of the
concepts discussed in the text.
