Reasoning, Meaning, and Mind - Softcover
In this important new collection, Gilbert Harman presents a selection of fifteen interconnected essays on fundamental issues at the center of analytic philosophy. The book opens with a group of four essays discussing basic principles of reasoning and rationality. The next three essays argue against the once popular idea that certain claims are true and knowable by virtue of meaning. In the third group of essays Harman presents his own view of meaning and the possibility of thinking in language. The final three essays investigate the nature of mind, developing further the themes already set out.
Reasoning, Meaning, and Mind offers an integrated presentation of this rich and influential body of work, which Harman has developed over thirty years.
