About the Book

An original view of the problems of reference and singular terms, including a novel account of singular thought, a systematic application of recent work in the theory of speech acts, and a partial revival of Russell's analysis of singular terms.

Review :
`Bach's interesting book offers a course of philosophical therapy, designed to persuade us that problems of reference are much easier than they appear ... Bach's philosophical good sense and detailed suggestions should stimulate all philosophers concerned with issues about names, descriptions and pronominal reference.' Christopher Hookway, Philosophical Books `Although in no way trivial or superficial, Thought and Reference looks like a healthy resurgence of common sense. Such a model of clarity should at least provide refreshing stimuli for those wallowing in the deepening mire of recent technicalities.' David Freedman, Mind 'ambitious...provocative and tenaciously argued' William W. Taschek, Journal of Philosophy 'it stimulates and illuminates' Mark Sainsbury, Times Literary Supplement 'What is refreshing about the book is the way in which Bach is willing to follow the argument wherever it leads, even when it involves radical dissent from other leading thinkers in the area and from current orthodoxies. It is a powerful and persuasive defence of a particular view of the relations between semantics and pragmatics, and an important contribution to the field.' Nicholas Everitt, Times Higher Education Supplement
