  abstract: This book steers a middle course between the logical and cognitive approaches to semantics. Patrick Duffley argues for a radical revision of the semantics/pragmatics interface, proposing that the dividing line be drawn between content that is linguistically encoded and content that is not encoded but still communicated.
