About this ebook

Tyler Burge presents a collection of his seminal essays on Gottlob Frege (1848-1925), who has a strong claim to be seen as the founder of modern analytic philosophy, and whose work remains at the centre of philosophical debate today. Truth, Thought, Reason gathers some of Burge's most influential work from the last twenty-five years, and also features important new material, including a substantial introduction and postscripts to four of the ten papers. It will be an essential resource for any historian of modern philosophy, and for anyone working on philosophy of language, epistemology, or philosophical logic.

doesn't add anything. in fact, what there is to be added isn't. nothing new here about semantics. and extraordinarily profound problems with frege's semantics (e.g. that it has the consequence that in 'snow is white and it is true that snow is snow is white', the two occurrences of 'snow' don't have the same meaning) are either overlooked or dismissed as insignificant. all we have here is a bureaucrat who is flexing and protecting his dubious patch of turf.
