The book is highly recommended for learning and teaching theorem proving and semantics, picking up a lot of useful knowledge on higher-order logic along the way. The book is well-structured and written to support learning about the two main themes. It may also help to make formal methods more approachable to a larger number of students by offering the possibility to follow the book with a software tool, inviting the students to experiment and succeed in (automatically assisted) formal proof. (Stefan Hallerstede, Formal Aspects of Computing, Vol. 30, 2018)
