Taken as whole the essays address all of the central ideas and problems in Frege's philosophical work...This is a rich and immensely impressive body of work, which will be indispensable reading for specialists, but contains much that may stimulate and provoke those who think about the topics covered for their own sake.

Alan Millar, Philosophy

Burge's book will provide an essential point of reference for the next twenty-five years.

Michael Beaney, Notre Dame Philosophical Reviews

Tyler Burge presents a collection of his seminal essays on Gottlob Frege (1848-1925), who has a strong claim to be seen as the founder of modern analytic philosophy, and whose work remains at the centre of philosophical debate today. Truth, Thought, Reason gathers some of Burge's most influential work from the last twenty-five years, and also features important new material, including a substantial introduction and postscripts to four of the ten papers. It will be an essential resource for any historian of modern philosophy, and for anyone working on philosophy of language, epistemology, or philosophical logic.
