British philosopher who developed minimalism about truth — the meaning of 'true' is exhausted by the Equivalence Schema — and has written on Wittgenstein, probability, and the nature of meaning.
Truth: minimalism — there is no deep property of truth to explain; all that can be said about truth is encapsulated in the equivalence schema <p> is true iff p. Meaning: an alternative to truth-conditional semantics — the meaning of a word is its use-pattern. From a Deflationary Point of View: collected essays on the implications of deflationary truth.
