Searle and Foucault on truth

by C. G. Prado

"This book compares John Searle's and Michel Foucault's radically opposed views on truth in order to demonstrate the need for invigorating cross-fertilization between the analytic and Continental philosophical traditions. By pressing beyond familiar cliches about analytic philosophy and postmodernism, C.G. Prado shows that a surprising convergence of Searle's and Foucault's views on truth emerges."--Jacket.
