概要 | What is language? How does it relate to the world? How does it relate tothe mind? Should our view of language influence our view of the world? These areamong the central issues covered in this spirit...d and unusually clear introductionto the philosophy of language.Making no pretense of neutrality, Michael Devitt andKim Sterelny take a definite theoretical stance. Central to that stance isnaturalism--that is, they treat a philosophical theory of language as an empiricaltheory like any other and see people as nothing but complex parts of the physicalworld. This leads them, controversially, to a deflationary view of the significanceof the study of language: they dismiss the idea that the philosophy of languageshould be preeminent in philosophy.This highly successful textbook has beenextensively rewritten for the second edition to reflect recent developments in thefield.
