From the Publisher:
A book length essay developing the views of Prior and defending his claims against philosophers such as Quine and Davidson. Hugly and Sayward (philosophy, U. of Nebraska) dive into the consequences for intensionality and truth shadowing Prior's claims that a sentence never names, sentences cannot be otherwise signified, and that a sentence says what it says whatever the type of occurrence. Furthermore, they defend the philosopher's views regarding quantifications binding sentential variables by providing a recursive definition of truth for sentential quantifications that agrees with Prior's assertions.
