Introduction to Topic II:

“Fixing Reference” develops an account of aboutness-fixing for thoughts about ordinary objects, and of reference-fixing for the singular terms we use to express them. Extant discussions of this topic tread a weary path through descriptivist proposals, causalist alternatives, and attempts to combine the most attractive elements of each. The account developed here is a new beginning. It starts with two basic principles:

The first connects aboutness and truth. The second connects truth and justification.These principles--one connecting aboutness and truth; the other truth and justification--combine to yield a third principle connecting aboutness and justification.The first part of the book proves a precise version of this principle.Its remaining chapters use the principle to explain how the relations to objects that enable us to think about them--perceptual attention; understanding of proper names; grasp of descriptions--do their aboutness-fixing and thought-enabling work.

The book includes discussions of the nature of singular thought and the relation between thought and consciousness.
