Reviews

Most of the essays in Readings in Language and Mind have appeared previously in many other places. However, the special attention given to language in this context is indeed unique and distinguishes it from other anthologies. Pragmatics and Cognition Readings in Lnaguage and Mind collects classic writings in the philosophy of language and philosophy of mind of the last 40--50 years, including important relevant items from linguistics and cognitive science. Ita s an excellent collection to give students a basic foundation to understand the background of current philosophical inquiry. Professor Gilbert Harman, Princeton University
