In this volume, an international roster of contributors discuss Smiley's work to date; their essays will be of significant interest to those working across the logical spectrum-in philosophy of language, philosophical logic and mathematical logic.Routledge studies in contemporary philosophy ;18.LogicPhilosophy, Modern21st centuryLogic.Philosophy, Modern160Lear Jonathan170234Oliver Alex1518997Smiley T.
