This book concentrates on the development of philosophical views on language over the last 130 years,offering coverage of all the leading thinkers in the fieldincluding Frege, Russell, Wittgenstein, Austin, Quine, Chomsky, Grice, Davidson, Dummett and Kripke.Crucially the book demonstrates how the ideas and arguments ofthese key thinkers have contributed to our understanding of the theoretical account of language use and its central concepts.
