This book is intended for all philosophers, linguists, and psychologists interested in philosophy; anyone else interested in language and mind.
This volume updates Donald Davidson's "Inquiries into Truth and Interpretation" (1984), which set out his philosophy of language. The work addresses a central question - what it is for words to mean what they do - and features a previously unpublished essay.
