Reviews

The book is very clearly and effectively written, with an impressively tight and lucid argumentative structure. The view of propositions defended is original, as is the approach to defending it. It is very focused in its aims and scope ... Propositions is ambitious and important: it presents a very original view which should become a real contender in metaphysical discussions over the nature of propositions. Corine Besson, Notre Dame Philosophical Reviews Online
