Böcker av Michael P. Wolf

This book offers fifty short chapter entries on topics in the philosophy of language. Each addresses a paradox, a longstanding puzzle, or a major theme that has emerged in the field, tracing overlap with issues in philosophy of mind, cognitive science, ethics, political philosophy, and literature.

Drawing on a rich pragmatist tradition, this book offers an account of the different kinds of 'oughts', or varieties of normativity, that we are subject to contends that there is no conflict between normativity and the world as science describes it.
