Reviews

`a terrific contribution to the field ... both authors and editors are to be commended for breaking new ground on this very important speech act. The collection is full of fresh, interesting insights and clear arguments that will provide many a philosopher with a deeply explored dialectic to work within.' Adam Sennett, Analysis `Brown and Cappelen's volume is rich and fascinating reading, and should be of interest for all contemporary philosophers of language and epistemologists.' Allan Hazlett, Robin McKenna, and Joey Pollock, Mind

Brown and Cappelen's volume is rich and fascinating reading, and should be of interest for all contemporary philosophers of language and epistemologists. Allan Hazlett, Mind
