Scott Soames is professor of philosophy at the University of Southern California. His many books include "What Is Meaning?", "Philosophical Essays, Reference and Description", and "Philosophical Analysis in the Twentieth Century".
In this book, one of the world's foremost philosophers of language presents his unifying vision of the field - its principal achievements, its most pressing current questions, and its most promising future directions. In addition to explaining the progress philosophers have made toward creating a theoretical framework for the study of language, Scott Soames investigates foundational concepts - such as truth, reference, and meaning - that are central to the philosophy of language and important to philosophy as a whole. The first part of the book describes how philosophers from Frege, Russell, Tarski, and Carnap to Kripke, Kaplan, and Montague developed precise techniques for understanding the languages of logic and mathematics, and how these techniques have been refined and extended to the study of natural human languages. The book then builds on this account, exploring new thinking about propositions, possibility, and the relationship between meaning, assertion, and other aspects of language use. An invaluable overview of the philosophy of language by one of its most important practitioners, this book will be essential reading for all serious students of philosophy.

這書適閤精熟瞭語言哲學之後來刷一遍的人。
评分和同一係列Sosa那本知識論一樣,似乎並不是作為教材來寫的。但如果當作專著來讀吧,裏麵的討論又太粗瞭,不如直接去讀Soames的文章來得簡單直接。如果當作教材來讀吧,對該領域基本知識的介紹又少的不行。。。所以就是,極不推薦。。。
