Joachim, Harold H. Nature of truth: an essay. *$2. Oxford.
Mr. Joachim says in his preface, “The following essay does not pretend to establish a new theory. Its object is to examine certain typical notions of truth, one or other of which—whether in the form of a vague assumption or raised to the level of an explicit theory—has hitherto served as the basis of philosophical speculation. If I am not mistaken, every one of these typical notions and accredited theories of truth fails sooner or later to maintain itself against critical investigation. And I have tried ... to indicate in what direction (if in any) there appears some prospect of more successful construction.”
