Features: John Searle (1932–) is a highly influential contemporary American analytical philosopher renowned for his research on the philosophy of language, and a member of the U.S. National Academy of Arts and Sciences. This book is a concise and accessible philosophical work, but it is neither an overview of various philosophical problems nor a brief history of philosophical problems. Instead, it is an important philosophical work summarizing Searle's research findings over more than 40 years. The book analyzes the structural characteristics of the mind, language, and social reality, as well as their logical dependencies on one another, and elucidates how they are integrated together.
