Summary: | This book takes an original approach to the perennial problems of reference and singular terms by separating the underlying issues into different levels of analysis. This split-level approach includes a novel account of singular thought, a systematic application of recent work in the theory of speech acts, and a partial revival of Russell's analysis of singular terms. Criticisms of competing views are provided as well. |
