Perspectives on Negation
Views from Across the Language Sciences
About this book
Although negation has been studied extensively by philosophers, linguists, and psychologists, it remains an active area of inquiry across the language sciences. This dynamic and cross-disciplinary volume contains a unique collection of chapters by language scientists from a variety of disciplines. Readers will explore novel connections and gain insights into the nature of negation, one of the few uncontroversial universal elements of natural language.
