References on natural deduction

For recent treatments in English of natural deduction, I've found:
E.J.Lemmon, "Beginning Logic", 1965, still available in paperback.
Dag Prawitz, "Natural Deduction", 1965, not available at Amazon.
Merrie Bergmann et. al., "The Logic Book", textbook, in print.

I'm looking for a presentation of natural deduction that's more recent
than Lemmon's or Prawitz's, and more scholarly/rigorous than
Bergmann's. Are there books that I've missed, or can anyone suggest
any journal articles?

Thanks.

The following is recommendable:

Guttenplan, Samuel (1997). /The languages of logic: An introduction to
formal logic/ (2nd ed.). Oxford: Blackwell.
