A study in philosophical logic of the meaning of 'true'. Dr
Williams demonstrates the shortcomings of various analyses which
interpret 'true' as a predicate or truth as a relational property,
and clears up a number of important points about propositions,
quantification, definite descriptions and correspondence. This
'deflationary metaphysics' is interwoven with a positive theory of
his own, which seeks to develop ideas about the late Arthur Prior.
The work is marked throughout by great clarity, precision and
thoroughness.
