Overlooking Conventions by Michael Devitt
This book criticizes the methodology of the recent semantics-pragmatics debate in the theory of language and proposes an alternative. It applies this methodology to argue for a traditional view against a group of contextualists and pragmatists, including Sperber and Wilson, Bach, Carston, Recanati, Neale, and many others.-
