Paul Horwich presents an original theory of meaning, demonstrates its richness, and defends it against all comers. He surveys the diversity of twentieth-century philosophical insights into meaning and shows that his theory can reconcile these with a common-sense view of meaning as derived from use. Meaning and its companion volume Truth (now issued in a revised edition) demystify two central issues in philosophy, and offer a controversial but
compelling view of the relations between language, thought, and reality.
