As often happens in Philosophy, the process of trying to clarify and iron out apparently local points of disagreement between us has unearthed deeper divergences concerning larger issues in the philosophy of language and mind, in epistemology, and in the theory of action. Such is our profession\"--\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eBack Jacket\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eContemporary epistemologists and philosophers of mind continue to debate the perplexing nature of our apparently privileged psychological self-knowledge -- the special, first-personal knowledge we are routinely taken to have of our own sensations, moods, emotions, beliefs, desires, memories, perceptions, thoughts, imaginings, and intentional actions. In \u003ci\u003eExpression and Self-Knowledge\u003c\/i\u003e, Dorit Bar-On and Crispin Wright engage in a sustained critical debate concerning the best approach for achieving a philosophical understanding of this type of knowledge. Their debate focuses pre-eminently on the expressivist idea that a satisfactory explanation will need to assign a leading role to our capacity to manifest our mental states in expressive behaviour and speech.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eIn the first part of the book, the authors join to provide a penetrating critical overview of other existing approaches to privileged self-knowledge, before going on to present and debate their own contrasting views of its provenance. The discussion develops and addresses new criticisms of the expressivist approach, engaging broad issues in epistemology, philosophy of language, and philosophy of mind, and offering divergent perspectives on the remarks on the issues in Wittgenstein's \u003ci\u003ePhilosophical Investigations\u003c\/i\u003e.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003ci\u003eExpression and Self-Knowledge\u003c\/i\u003e incorporates cutting-edge research and offers invaluable insights on a hotly debated topic in contemporary philosophy. It is essential reading for epistemologists, philosophers of language and mind, psychologists with an interest in introspection, and all advanced students working in the area.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eDORIT BAR-ON\u003c\/b\u003e is Professor of Philosophy at the University of Connecticut and Director of the Expression, Communication, and the Origins of Meaning Research Group which she established in 2010, while at the University of North Carolina, Chapel Hill.
