Reviews

this book is really a terrific contribution to the field and 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 Senett, 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 valuable reading for anyone interested in speech acts in general and assertion in particular. Each contribution raises a lot of interesting and original questions. In addition to this, the volume reads as a highly homogenous whole, with common threads running across several papers.
