Revised 2nd edition of this popular introduction to philosophy of logic and philosophy of language.

Synopsis:

Meaning and Argument is a popular introduction to philosophy of logic and philosophy of language. * Offers a distinctive philosophical, rather than mathematical, approach to logic * Concentrates on symbolization and works out all the technical logic with truth tables instead of derivations * Incorporates the insights of half a century's work in philosophy and linguistics on anaphora by Peter Geach, Gareth Evans, Hans Kamp, and Irene Heim among others * Contains numerous exercises and a corresponding answer key * An extensive appendix allows readers to explore subjects that go beyond what is usually covered in an introductory logic course * Updated edition includes over a dozen new problem sets and revisions throughout * Features an accompanying website at http://ruccs.rutgers.edu/~logic/MeaningArgument.html
