New Essays on Tarski and Philosophy aims to show the way to a proper understanding        of the philosophical legacy of the great logician, mathematician, and philosopher        Alfred Tarski (1902-1983). The contributors are an international group of scholars,        some expert in the historical background and context of Tarski's work, others        specializing in aspects of his philosophical development, others more interested in        understanding Tarski in the light of contemporary thought.The essays can be seen as        addressing Tarski's seminal treatment of four basic questions about logical        consequence. (1) How are we to understand truth, one of the notions in terms of        which logical consequence is explained? What is it that is preserved in valid        inference, or that such inference allows us to discover new claims to have on the        basis of old? (2) Among what kinds of things does the relation of logical        consequence hold? (3) Given answers to the first two questions, what isinvolved in        the consequence relationship itself? What is the preservation at work in 'truth        preservation'? (4) Finally, what do truth and consequence so construed have to do        with meaning?
