{"product_id":"9780521814843","title":"Thought and World : An Austere Portrayal of Truth, Reference, and Semantic Correspondence (Cambridge Studies in Philosophy)","description":"\u003cp\u003eThere is an important family of semantic notions that we apply to thoughts and to the conceptual constituents of thoughts - as when we say that the thought that the Universe is expanding is true. Thought and World presents a theory of the content of such notions. The theory is largely deflationary in spirit, in the sense that it represents a broad range of semantic notions - including the concept of truth - as being entirely free from substantive metaphysical and empirical presuppositions. At the same time, however, it takes seriously and seeks to explain the intuition that there is a metaphysically or empirically 'deep' relation (a relation of mirroring or semantic correspondence) linking thoughts to reality. Thus, the theory represents a kind of compromise between deflationism and versions of the correspondence theory of truth. This book will appeal to students and professionals interested in the philosophy of logic and language.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Cambridge University Press","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48678014550251,"sku":"00000_00000_00000_00000","price":194.1,"currency_code":"SGD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0758\/4484\/5803\/files\/9780521814843-1.jpg?v=1781627540","url":"https:\/\/kinokuniya.com.sg\/products\/9780521814843","provider":"Books Kinokuniya Singapore","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
