Description: "In this book Alan Berger further develops the new theory of reference - as formulated by Kripke and Putnam - applying it in novel ways to many philosophical problems concerning reference and existence. Berger argues that his notion of anaphoric background condition and anaphoric links within a linguistic community are crucial not only to a theory of reference, but to the analysis of these problems as well."--BOOK JACKET.
