Karen Green offers the first comprehensive introduction toDummett's philosophy of language, providing an overview and summaryof his most important arguments. She argues that Dummett should notbe understood as a determined advocate of anti-realism, but thathis greatest contribution to the philosophy of language is to haveset out the strengths and weaknesses of the three most influentialpositions within contemporary theory of meaning - realism, asepitomised by Frege, the holism to be found in Wittgenstein, Quineand Davidson and the constructivism which can be extracted fromBrouwer. It demonstrates that analytic philosophy as Dummettpractices it, is by no means an outmoded approach to thinking aboutlanguage, but that it is relevant both to cognitive science and tophenomenology.

The file format PDF always displays a book page identically on any hardware. This makes PDF suitable for complex layouts such as those used in textbooks and reference books (images, tables, columns, footnotes). Unfortunately, on the small screens of e-readers or smartphones, PDFs are rather annoying, requiring too much scrolling.
This eBook uses Adobe-DRM, a „hard” copy protection. If the necessary requirements are not met, unfortunately you will not be able to open the eBook. You will therefore need to prepare your reading hardware before downloading.
