Heimir Geirsson

Philosophy of Language and Webs of Information (eBook, ePUB)

• Format: ePub

Produktbeschreibung

Geirsson's account of the nature of propositions and the cognitive value of names focuses on subjects organizing information in webs; a name can then access and elicit information from a given web. Geirsson proceeds to extend the account of information to non-referring names, but they have long provided a serious challenge to the causal reference theorist.
