Description
Theories of Truth by Frederick F. Schmitt
A comprehensive collection of philosophical reflections on the nature of truth, bringing together classic and contemporary perspectives on four influential theories: correspondence, pragmatist, coherence, and deflationary theories.
Divided into four sections, this book provides an introduction to the subject and features contributions from prominent philosophers such as C.S. Peirce, William James, Bertrand Russell, Alfred Tarski, Hartry Field, Dorothy Grover, and Anil Gupta, among others. The result is a valuable resource for anyone looking to understand the current state of debate on truth.
