Consciousness and Language

Product Description: One of the most important and influential philosophers of the last 30 years, John Searle has been concerned throughout his career with a single overarching question: how can we have a unified and theoretically satisfactory account of ourselves and of our relations to other people and to the natural world?

The essays in this collection are related to this broad overarching issue that unites the diverse strands of Searle's work...read more (view table of contents, read Amazon.com's description)
