Information in natural language
In Adriaans Pieter & Van Benthem Johan, Handbook of the Philosophy of Science, Volume 8. Philosophy of Information. Elsevier-North Holland. pp. 49-112 (2008)
Abstract
Natural languages are vehicles of information, arguably the most important, certainly the most ubiquitous that humans possess. Our everyday interactions with the world, with each other and with ourselves depend on them. And even where in the specialised contexts of science we use dedicated formalisms to convey information, their use is embedded in natural language.1..Author Profiles
