(2015) Logic and the limits of philosophy in Kant and Hegel, Basingstoke, Palgrave Macmillan.
Truth is a matter of peculiar disciplinary significance for both philosophers and logicians. Of course, every science and inquiry seeks to say something true about "what is". Theologians, scientists, and artists seek to discern the true, whether this truth concerns the highest being, the nature of depression, or social justice, and so forth. The logician and the philosopher, however, are unique in their efforts to mark out the conditions of truth. They both share the tasks of determining the boundaries of intelligibility, separating formal from material conditions of truth, and striving for a language of utmost precision. Both disciplines are thus concerned, in contrast to the particular sciences and arts, with conditions by which truth happens.
