MOLTMANN, F. T., Act-Based Conceptions of Propositional Content. Contemporary and Historical Perspectives. Oxford University Press, 2017. 408p. Hardback. This important collection gives Anglophone contemporary philosophers of mind and language access for the first time to historical and current writing defending the view that the notion of an act, rather than a propositional content, is fundamental in explaining propositional attitudes and their linguistic expression. Collectively the essays provide a substantial philosophical and linguistic challenge to unexamined doctrines that we have inherited. The volume deserves and will repay detailed attention.
