The ideas discussed have been important not only in philosophy but in logic, linguistics, psychology, computer science and other areas concerned with thought and communication. Taylor was an important philosopher and led Stanford's influential Symbolic Systems Program, graduates of which are leaders in Silicon Valley. The book is not elementary, but it presents rich and subtle products of his years of thought on important topics with many examples and clear discussions.
