Language and Human Understanding: The Roots of Creativity in Speech and Thought

Philosopher, psychologist and linguist are all concerned with natural language.

He concludes that one extended logic or “integrated semantic syntax” shapes grammar, but without constricting languages to being of one grammatical type.
