Book Description
Michael Dummett is one of the most important and influential of contemporary philosophers; this book covers his work on metaphysics and the philosophy of language, two branches of philosophy that are closely intertwined. It contains twenty essays that have not appeared in his previous collections Truth and Other Enigmas and Frege and Other Philosophers; of these essays, three are previously unpublished, one appears here in English for the first time, and others have been difficult of access until now. The two central questions addressed here are: What is it for a word or a sentence to mean what it does? What is it for a statement to be true? These fundamental questions continue to perplex philosophers. This collection represents a fascinating and indispensable contribution to the project of resolving this perplexity.
