English | ISBN: 0415703344 | 2013 | 188 pages | EPUB | 3 MB

Its main concern is the extent to which analyzing meaning relations between cognate words reveal the infrastructure of the actual and mental lexicon, assuming that language mirrors thought.

Overall, this volume addresses major contemporary issues in the philosophy of language and theoretical semantics.
