Truth and Other Enigmas

“Dummett is one of the outstanding philosophers of the present time… The present volume should consolidate and enhance this reputation… His work demands exceptionally close reading, but also repays it.”—The Observer

“The interest [of these essays] is heightened by their being assembled together in a single volume, which gives us a clearer picture of Dummett’s philosophy than we were likely to have beforehand… This book will be argued with often and in many places in the years to come. It is a measure of the importance of his work.”—Philosophical Books

“These writings…explore the theory of meaning as pivotally important for the analysis of truth and…traditional metaphysical questions… Dummett’s work is technical but always lucid, and it is of fundamental importance.”—Choice
