本书对语言哲学的全新审视聚焦于字面意义理论与语用学之间的联系——对意义与语言使用及其语境之间关系的哲学考察。在这里，阿特拉斯发展了语言歧义和语言概括性之间的对比，以保罗·格赖斯关于含意的著作为出发点，建立了一个详细的会话推理理论，并以乔姆斯基的内在语义学和语言表现之间的关系为例，说明了它们之间的联系。然后，阿特拉斯讨论了他的界面理论对隐喻语言和字面语言的区别、格赖斯对意义的解释、分析/综合区分、意义整体论和自然语言的形式语义学的影响。这本书对语言哲学做出了重要贡献，将吸引哲学家、语言学家和认知科学家。
This fresh look at the philosophy of language focuses on the interface between a theory of literal meaning and pragmatics-a philosophical examination of the relationship between meaning and language use and its contexts. Here, Atlas develops the contrast between verbal ambiguity and verbal generality, works out a detailed theory of conversational inference using the work of Paul Grice on Implicature as a starting point, and gives an account of their interface as an example of the relationship between Chomsky's Internalist Semantics and Language Performance. Atlas then discusses consequences of his theory of the Interface for the distinction between metaphorical and literal language, for Grice's account of meaning, for the Analytic/Synthetic distinction, for Meaning Holism, and for Formal Semantics of Natural Language. This book makes an important contribution to the philosophy of language and will appeal to philosophers, linguists, and cognitive scientists.
