Type: Non-Fiction

Pages: 205

This book offers a philosophical basis for its anti-thesis.
SK Leung refutes the separation of reference from meaning, the long-held logical principle of the identity of the indiscernibles and, of course Wittgenstein's non private-language philosophy.

The book shows how this public 'reference' is possible without having to accept that the content of meaning is inevitably public. Here the author introduces the term 'reactionary response' for the co-ordination of public understanding which is merely a 'pointing' (reference) to something instead of an identity of something.

This is of course only possible if private content is retained. The thing that is presupposed in this 'reactionary' understanding is the close affinity amongst all men who share linguistic understanding, therefore share a common nature that propagate these reactions.
