LANGUAGE TRUTH AND LOGIC Alfred Jules Ayer Philosophy Dover Paperback

Description: LANGUAGE TRUTH AND LOGIC by Alfred Jules Ayer Published by Dover (Paperback) 160 pages Summary: "First published in 1936, this first full length presentation in English of the Logical Positivism of Carnap, Neurath, and others has gone through 10 printings to become a classic of thought and communication. It not only surveys one of the most important areas of modern thought; it also shows you how to apply analytical methods to your own field of work and dispel the confusion that arises from imperfect understanding of the uses of language. A first rate antidote for fuzzy thought and muddled writing, this remarkable book has helped philosophers, writers, speakers, teachers, students, and general readers alike. Mr. Ayer sets up specific tests by which you can easily evaluate statements of ideas. You will also learn to distinguish ideas that cannot be verified by experience - those expressing religious, moral, or aesthetic experience, those expounding theological or metaphysical doctrine, and those dealing with a priori truth."
