OverviewThe structure and properties of any natural language expression depend on its component sub-expressions, ""resources"", and relations among them that are sensitive to basic structural properties of order, grouping, and multiplicity. Resource-sensitivity thus provides a perspective on linguistic structure that is well-defined and universally applicable. The papers in this collection examine linguistic resources and resource-sensitivity from a variety of perspectives, including: modal aspects of categorial type inference; multi-dimensional type structures and grammatical architecture; resource-sensitive aspects of binding and anaphora; resource-sensitive inference; and discourse context. In particular, the book contains a number of papers treating anaphorically-dependent expressions as functions, whose application to an appropriate argument yields a type and an interpretation directly integratable with the surrounding grammatical structure.
