This book shows how to capitalize on Information Theory concepts to obtain an experimental measure of semantic meaning. This applies to artificial and natural languages alike. The basic approach is to study a 'protolanguage' as a fundamental block of languages. The book then deals with internal representation of meaning, artificial speakers and the problem of scaling up to natural languages.
