Reviews
Those interested in formal languages or natural languages will get a lot of value from parts three and four, but I believe every computing professional would gain from reading at least the other three sections. I enjoyed it very much. The Australian Computer Journal C. Baker-Finch This work is an excellent introduction to computational linguistics and its neighbouring fields such as programming languages, artificial intelligence, machine translation and knowledge engineering.

Synopsis
A global introduction to language technology and the areas of computer science where language technology plays a role. Surveyed in this volume are issues related to the parsing problem in the fields of natural languages, programming languages, and formal languages.Throughout the book attention is paid to the social forces which influenced the development of the various topics. Also illustrated are the development of the theory of language analysis, its role in compiler construction, and its role in computer applications with a natural language interface between men and machine. Parts of the material in this book have been used in courses on computational linguistics, computers and society, and formal approaches to languages., A global introduction to language technology and the areas of computer science where language technology plays a role.

In contrast, top marks for the seller: accurate description, excellent packaging, prompt transport from USA (until Evri got its hands on the package), and good-natured support when I explained the problems I was having with the notoriously inefficient delivery firm.
