The book clearly explains and assesses Frege''s work in these areas, systematically examining his major concepts, and revealing the links between them. The emphasis is on Frege''s highly influential work in philosophical logic and the theory of meaning, including the features of his logic, his conceptions of object, concept and function, and his seminal distinction between sense and reference.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003ci\u003eFrege\u003c\/i\u003e will be invaluable for students of the philosophy of language, philosophical logic, and analytic philosophy.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eTrade Review\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e'Noonan's book provides a careful and painstaking, yet readily accessible, exposition of Frege's principal doctrines. His evident sympathy with Frege's views never interferes with a searchingly critical assessment. Whilst many important claims in the book are far from being uncontroversial, its final two chapters - on Frege's philosophical logic and theory of meaning - must rank among the best discussions available.' \u003ci\u003eBob Hale, University of Glasgow\u003c\/i\u003e\u003cbr\u003e \u003cp\u003e\"This is an excellent introduction to Frege...There's much to admire and agree with in this book\u003ci\u003e\" Steven Robinson, Philosophy in Review\u003c\/i\u003e\u003cbr\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eTable of Contents\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003ePreface. \u003cp\u003eAcknowlegements.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eChapter 1 Introduction: Frege's Life and Work, \u003ci\u003eBiography, The Origin and Development of Frege's Philosophy, Frege's Contributions to Philosophy\u003c\/i\u003e.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eChapter 2: Logic,\u003ci\u003eThe Purpose of Conceptional Notation, Logic Before Frege, Fregean Logic\u003c\/i\u003e.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eChapter 3: Number, \u003ci\u003eAims of the Foundations of Arithmetic, Rebuttal of Earlier Attempts, The Development of Frege's Own Position\u003c\/i\u003e.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eChapter 4: Philosophical Logic, \u003ci\u003eOn Function and Concept, On Concept and Object\u003c\/i\u003e.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eChapter 5: Theory of Meaning, \u003ci\u003eThe Distinction between Sense and Reference, Indirect Reference, The Objectivity of Sense, Challenges to Sense\u003c\/i\u003e.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eAppendix.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eBibliography.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eIndex\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"John Wiley and Sons Ltd","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":49404344926551,"sku":"9780745616735","price":21.53,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/bookcurl.com\/products\/frege-9780745616735","provider":"Book Curl","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
