Kiyong Lee is Professor Emeritus of Linguistics at Korea University in Seoul. He was President of the Linguistic Society of Korea and the Korean Society for Cognitive Science, and has worked on creating standards for semantic annotation as an ISO working group Convenor and Project Leader. In 1974, he published his University of Texas at Austin dissertation, On Montague Grammar. His published works include Computational Morphology and a three-volume book, Language and the World: Formal Semantics; Tense and Modality: Possible-Worlds Semantics; and Situation and Information: Situation Semantics.

'Annotation-based Semantics for Space and Time in Language provides an exhaustive consideration of the syntactic and semantic concerns involved in devising a linguistic annotation scheme. Although focused on spatial and temporal phenomena and presented primarily from the perspective of ISO standardization efforts, Professor Lee's in-depth exposition of the relevant issues will benefit anyone engaged in a linguistic annotation project.' Nancy Ide, Vassar College
