> Since 2002, FoLLI (the European Association for Logic, Language,  
> and Information, www.folli.org) awards the E. W. Beth Dissertation  
> Prize to outstanding dissertations in the fields of Logic,  
> Language, and Information. We invite submissions for the best  
> dissertation which resulted in a Ph.D. degree in the year 2007. The  
> dissertations will be judged on technical depth and strength,  
> originality, and impact made in at least two of the three fields of  
> Logic, Language, and Computation. Inter-disciplinarity is an  
> important feature of the theses competing for the E. W. Beth  
> Dissertation Prize.
>
> Who qualifies.
> Nominations of candidates are admitted who were awarded a Ph.D.  
> degree in the areas of Logic, Language, or Information between  
> January 1st, 2007 and December 31st, 2007. There is no restriction  
> on the nationality of the candidate or the university where the  
> Ph.D. was granted. After a careful consideration, FoLLI has decided  
> to accept only dissertations written in English. Dissertations  
> produced in 2007 but not written in English or not translated will  
> be allowed for submission, after translation, also with the call  
> next year (for 2008). Respectively, nominations of full English  
> translations of theses originally written in other language than  
> English and defended in 2006 and 2007 will be accepted for  
> consideration this year, too.

> ·         an invitation to submit the thesis (or a revised version  
> of it) to the new series of books in Logic, Language and
