The book delves into conventional and conversational implicature, offering detailed definitions and explanations. It explores conversational implicature in relation to concepts like meaning, relevance, presupposition, and entailment. Grice's theory is thoroughly examined, including the cooperative principle and its maxims, alongside their observance and violations that lead to implicatures. The text also categorizes conversational implicature into particularized and generalized types, highlighting key properties such as defeasibility and calculability with relevant examples.
