A new book by Patrick Suppes was just published: "Language for
Humans and Robots."  The summary in the Chronical of Higher Ed.
says it "explores a variety of topics in philosophy and psychology
of language, including the syntax and semantics of children's
language and robotic machine learning of natural language."
Anyone familiar enough with the book to indicate its main
theses?
