Description: | Select Guide Rating Philosopher, psychologist and linguist are all concerned with natural language. Accordingly, in seeking a unified view, David Braine draws on insights from all these fields, sifting through the discordant schools of linguists. He concludes that one extended logic or “integrated semantic syntax” shapes grammar, but without constricting languages to being of one grammatical type. |
