This book is aimed at a reader who knows no Prolog and little about Chomsky's generative grammar. Beginners acquire the ability to write programs to encode their own problems into constraint based logical grammar formalisms. Linguistic (Minimalist Theory) and Prolog terms are defined using 75 full page diagrams, 100 programs, and 105 session files.
