Synopsis:
In his The Measure of Mind, Robert J. Matthews provides a sustained critique of a widely held representationalist account of beliefs, desires, and other propositional attitudes. He goes on to develop an alternative, more plausible measurement-theoretic account of propositional attitudes and the sentences by which we attribute them. This original work will be of considerable interest to scholars and graduate students working in the philosophy of mind and language.
