This is a concise introduction to current philosophical debates
about truth. Combining philosophical and technical material, the
book is organized around, but not limited to, the view known as
deflationism. In clear language, Burgess and Burgess cover a wide
range of issues, including the nature of truth, the status of
truth-value gaps, the relationship between truth and meaning,
relativism and pluralism about truth, and semantic paradoxes from
Alfred Tarski to Saul Kripke and beyond. The book provides a rich
picture of contemporary philosophical theorizing about truth, one
that will be essential reading for philosophy students as well as
philosophers specializing in other areas.
