Saul Kripke is one of the most important and original post-war
analytic philosophers. His work has undeniably had a profound
impact on the philosophy of language and the philosophy of mind.
Yet, his ideas are amongst the most challenging frequently
encountered by students of philosophy. In this informative and
accessible book, Arif Ahmed provides a clear and thorough account
of Kripke's philosophy, his major works and ideas, providing an
ideal guide to the important and complex thought of this key
philosopher. The book offers a detailed review of his two major
works, "Naming and Necessity" and "Wittgenstein on Rules and
Private Language", and explores how Kripke's ideas often seem to
overturn widely accepted views and even perceptions of common
sense. Geared towards the specific requirements of students who
need to reach a sound understanding of Kripke's thought, the book
provides a cogent and reliable survey of the nature and
significance of Kripke's contribution to philosophy. This is the
ideal companion to the study of this most influential and
challenging of philosophers.
