The Logic of Conventional Implicatures - Oxford Studies in Theoretical Linguistics
Potts, Christopher (University of Massachusetts)
This book revives the study of conventional implicatures in natural language semantics. H. Paul Grice first defined the concept. Since then his definition has seen many redefinitions. Christopher Potts returns to the original and uses it as a key into two areas of natural language: supplements and expressives.
