This book introduces fundamental techniques for computing semantic representations for fragments of natural language and performing inference with the result. The prinary tools used are first-order logic and lambda calculus. All the techniques introduced are implemented in Prolog. The book also shown how to use theorem provers and model builders in parallel to deal with natrual language inference.
