First published by Elsevier Science in 1991, this study demonstrates the viability of mathematical research into the foundations of categorial grammar, a topic at the border between logic and linguistics. It presents the categorial processing of syntax and semantics as a central component in a more general dynamic logic of information flow, in tune with computational developments in artificial intelligence and cognitive science.
