This listing is missing the text from the back cover. My copy has the below (the page count is also wrong; my copy has the numbered pages going up to p. 198):

----------------------

Donald Davidson is unquestionably one of America's greatest living philosophers. His influence on Anglo-American philosophy over the last twenty years has been enormous, and his work is an unavoidable reference point in current debates in the philosophy of language and the philosophy of mind.

This book offers a systematic and accessible introduction to Davidson's work. Evnine begins by discussing Davidson's contribution to the philosophy of mind, including his views on action, events and causation. He then examines Davidson's work in the philosophy of language. The link between meaning and truth, radical interpretation, and semantic holism are considered in detail. The final chapters deal with the metaphysical aspects of Davidson's work and seek to assess his philosophical project as a whole.

This comprehensive and clearly written book will be indispensable for students of philosophy and will be welcomed by students and academics throughout the humanities and social sciences.
