About the book

This book investigates the connection between language, mind and computation in theoretical linguistics in particular and cognitive science in general. The relationship between grammar, mind and computation which buttresses much of mainstream linguistic theory is rarely questioned but forms the basis of many theoretical developments and empirical advances. Language, Mind and Computation challenges and critiques the basis of this relationship, attempting to demonstrate that natural language grammars cannot be both mental and computational if the nature of interpretation is unaccounted for. This ambitious book will be of interest to theoretical linguists, philosophers of language, psycholinguists and even computer scientists.
