Edited in collaboration with FoLLI, the Association of Logic, Language and Information, this book collects a set of chapters of the lectures "The Logic of Categorial Grammars". .This book is intended for students in computer science,formal linguistics, mathematical logic and to colleagues interested in categorial grammars and their logical foundations. These lecture notes present categorial grammars as deductive systems, in the approach called parsing-as-deduction, and the book includes detailed proofs of their main properties.The papers are organized in topical sections on AB grammars, Lambek's syntactic calculus,Lambek calculus and montague grammar, non-associative Lambek calculus, multimodal Lambek calculus, Lambek calculus, linear logic and proof nets and proof nets for the multimodal Lambek calculus.
