Richard Kimberly Heck

Modes of Representation

Content, Communication, and Frege

• Gebundenes Buch

Produktbeschreibung

Modes of Presentation analyses a collection of problems, known as 'Frege's puzzle', resulting from how thinkers and speakers have a limited perspective on reference in thought and language. Heck argues that these puzzles have much to teach us both about the foundations of cognition and the nature of linguistic communication.
