Abstract
Abstract Logical form has been a central concern of the analytic tradition in philosophy from Frege and Russell to the present. The logical form of a sentence is thought to reveal both the structure of the thoughts we are expressing, and the structure of the world we think about if our thoughts are true. Thus, investigation into logical forms has played a central methodological role in investigations into the nature of the mind and into the nature of reality. However, the concept of logical form has not received as much attention as might have been expected from the central role it has played in philosophy in the analytic tradition. This book aims to help redress this by bringing together essays on logical form written from a variety of different theoretical perspectives in linguistics and philosophy. The book is divided into three thematically unified parts.
