New book

[alain.lecomte at UNIV-PARIS8.FR]

I wish to inform you of the recent publication of the book:
"Meaning, Logic and Ludics", by Alain Lecomte, prof. at Université Paris 8
(France), published at Imperial College Press, London
and distributed by World Scientific Publishing Co, Singapore

http://www.icpress.co.uk/mathematics/p670.html

This book is based on some of the most recent theories in logic, such as
linear logic and ludics, first created by Jean-Yves Girard, it provides
some analyses of computational semantical representations based on
advanced theories in theoretical computer science (continuation semantics,
symmetric calculi) and it surveys many solutions which have been proposed
for the syntax-semantics interface, taking into account properties of
language brought into light by generativists and others. The book is also
pioneering because of the presentation it gives of ludics, a framework
which allows us to characterize meaning as an invariant with regard to
interaction between processes.
