Essays in Relational Linguistics

There has been keen interest in my various writings for The Philosopher and its sister publication Philosophical Investigations. Today these were all published in one place, in a small pocket book format (see the column on the right). The book includes two features, six essays, two "snippets", and two provisional essays (under review and hotly disputed, respectively): twelve "writings" in all. The book's "centre of gravity" is a dynamic, relational view of the science of language, in contrast with the familiar, structural view(s). In keeping with the aims of the Philosophical Society of England, the essays are pitched at a general educated public.
