Table of ContentsPreface 1: The Introduction of Senses 2: Sense Identity 3: Definitions 4: Sense and Meaning 5: A Simple Semantic Model 6: Removal Rules 7: Syntactic and Semantic Options 8: Senses of Incomplete Expressions 9: Afterword References IndexReviewsI think Horty's book is really excellent in every way. Horty's insights about Frege and his astute grasp of the philosophical and logical issues involved bear on almost every issue in Frege scholarship. His interpretation of Frege is quite charitable and plausible at the same time, showing how Frege's insights and intentions led him to important difficulties. Horty is then able to suggest ways out of those difficulties that are both philosophically and logically plausible and Fregean in spirit if not in letter. I think the book will be widely used in seminars, will be a must purchase for all research libraries, and will be quite influential. A wonderful book. --John Perry, Stanford University I think Horty's book is really excellent in every way.
