Paul Horwich's main aim in Reflections on Meaning is to explain how
mere noises, marks, gestures, and mental symbols are able to
capture the world--that is, how words and sentences (in whatever
medium) come to mean what they do, to stand for certain things, to
be true or false of reality. His
answer is a groundbreaking development of Wittgenstein's idea that
the meaning of a term is nothing more than its use. While the
chapters here have appeared as individual essays, Horwich has
edited them to make a continuous argument, focused on articulating
and developing an important new conception
of language.
