This book systematically investigates what follows about meaning in
language if current views on the limited, or even redundant, role
of linguistic semantics are taken to their radical conclusion.
Focusing on conditionals, the book defends a wholly pragmatic,
wholly inferential account of meaning - one which foregrounds a
reasoning subject's individual state of mind. The topics discussed
in the book include conceptual content, internalism and
externalism, the semantics-pragmatics distinction, meaning holism
and explicit versus implicit communication. These topics and the
author's analysis of conditionals will allow the reader to engage
with some traditional and current research in linguistics,
philosophy and psychology.
