Reviews

'This is an excellent book. Trueman offers a sophisticated argument for a Fregean conception of higher-order logic, and adeptly applies the resulting view to a number of philosophical questions. I recommend it highly it to anyone interested in issues to do with properties and propositions in philosophical logic, the philosophy of language, and metaphysics.' Michael Rieppel, Syracuse University
