Annotation

K. shows how difficult it is, even for speech act theorists, to break away from the dominance of the truth-falsity dimension. Further, he investigates how the question of truth is connected with some types of speech acts. Finally, he discusses some other dimensions of assessment which enter into the understanding of speech acts.
