Pursuit of Truth

In Pursuit of Truth, W V Quine gives us his latest word on issues to which he has devoted many years. The pursuit of truth is a quest that links observation, theory, and the world. Various faulty efforts to forge such links have led to much intellectual confusion. In this book, newly revised, Quine gets beyond the confusion in rich, lively chapters that dissect his major concerns -evidence, reference, meaning, intension, and truth. This is an important book for understanding the effort that a major philosopher has made a large part of his life's work: to naturalize epistemology.
