Jackendoff Ray. Semantics and Cognition

8th ed. — The MIT Press, 1999. — 283 p. — ISBN: 0-262-10027-4.This book emphasizes the role of semantics as a bridge between the theory of language and the theories of other cognitive capacities such as visual perceptionand motor control. It develops the position that the study of semantics of natural language is the study of the structure of thought, and that grammatical structure offers a much more important source of evidence for the theory of cognition than isoften supposed by linguists, philosophers, psychologists, or computer scientists.
