There's nothing more to truth than that! We are able to see that the positions typically adopted in these debates are all defective -- contrived products of the mistaken assumption that reality, together with our representation of it, must exhibit a rigid uniformity and that deviations from the norm would be intolerably "weird.".

About this product

Product Information

Truth -- Meaning -- Reality presents a revolutionary philosophy: a broad and unified deflationism that encompasses language, thought, knowledge, and reality. Horwich's story begins with his minimalist view of truth -- paving the way to an account of meaning as use. And this combination of ideas then yields a perspective from which long-standing debates in epistemology and metaphysics can finally be settled. The book's fourteen essays constitute a coherent and complete expression of this three-pronged philosophy. Each of them is self-standing. But they have been revised and arranged so as to reveal the power and plausibility of the overall position.
