Abstract

John R. Searle is one of the world's leading philosophers. During his long and outstanding career, he has made groundbreaking and lasting contributions to the philosophy of language, to the philosophy of mind, as well as to the nature, structure, and functioning of social reality. This volume documents the 13th Münster Lectures on Philosophy with John R. Searle. It includes not only 11 critical papers on Searle's philosophy and Searle's replies to the papers, but also an original article by John R. Searle on his overall philosophical enterprise entitled "The Basic Reality and the Human Reality". -/- "I think Münster is probably unique among contemporary universities in its ability to produce such a high level of philosophical production from their philosophy students." - John R. Searle.

I am grateful for the thoughtful paper by these authors. However, I would have been helped if they had gone carefully through some examples, because I think many of the difficulties they raise are removed if we consider actual examples in detail. I will do that in this reply. They challenge me to say exactly what I mean. [REVIEW]Searle on Conceptual Relativism
