About this product
Product Information
With his customary incisiveness, W. V. Quine presents logic as the product of two factors, truth and grammar--but argues against the doctrine that the logical truths are true because of grammar or language. Rather, in presenting a general theory of grammar and discussing the boundaries and possible extensions of logic, Quine argues that logic is not a mere matter of words.

Beware. Seller listed the book as a hardcover with description and picture consistent with the 1992 1st printing version of book. They mailed me the softcover HBO Miniseries version printed in the 2000's which can be bought for less than $5 on ebay. There listing is false advertisement. As a used softcover it is overpriced. They continue to sell this book on ebay as a hardcover in more listings. I asked twice for them to send me hardcover and they just offer to give refund. Very Disappointed
