The Bulletin of the American Mathematical Society acclaimed this text as "a welcome addition" to the literature of nonstandard analysis, a field related to number theory, algebra, and topology. The first half presents a self-contained introduction to the subject, and the second part explores applications to stochastic analysis and mathematical physics. 1986 edition.

This original study considers the effects of language and meaning on the brain. Jens Erik Fenstad—an expert in the fields of recursion theory, nonstandard analysis, and natural language semantics—combines current formal semantics with a geometric structure in order to trace how common nouns, properties, natural kinds, and attractors link with brain dynamics.
