The Handbook of Contemporary Semantic Theory cover

The second edition of The Handbook of Contemporary Semantic Theory presents a comprehensive introduction to cutting-edge research in contemporary theoretical and computational semantics.

  • Features completely new content from the first edition of The Handbook of Contemporary Semantic Theory
  • Features contributions by leading semanticists, who introduce core areas of contemporary semantic research, while discussing current research
  • Suitable for graduate students for courses in semantic theory and for advanced researchers as an introduction to current theoretical work

“The second edition of The Handbook of Contemporary Semantic Theory surveys the field from a completely fresh perspective, with a new emphasis on formalisms and methods, and a closer focus on a wider range of phenomena than its distinguished predecessor. It will be read by linguists, philosophers, computational linguists, cognitive scientists, and others seeking to comprehend the continuing developments and rapid progress that have occurred in this area over the intervening decades.”
