Presenting a selection of thirteen essays on various topics at the foundations of philosophy-one previously unpublished and eight accompanied by substantial new postscripts-this book offers outstanding insight on truth, meaning, and propositional attitudes; semantic indeterminacy and other kinds of "factual defectiveness;" and issues concerning objectivity, especially in mathematics and in epistemology. It will reward the attention of any philosopher interested in language, epistemology, or mathematics.
