This volume explores how the effectiveness of communication is
shaped by aspects of semantics and pragmatics such as
compositionality, the roles of the speaker and hearer, and the
acquisition of meaning. "Optimal Communication" surveys recent
research in the fields of syntax, semantics, and pragmatics, and
draws from optimality theory to argue that optimal meanings result
from a compromise between competing constraints. "Optimal
Communication" will be an invaluable resource for students in
cognitive science, linguistics, and natural language semantics.
