"Michael P. Lynch is a philosopher of truth." -- New Yorker, https://www.newyorker.com/magazine/2016/03/21/the-internet-of-us-and-the-end-of-facts
"On the whole I have been very satisfied with the content of the volume, which is why I keep going back to it every time I teach the class. I tend to ignore certain parts of the first edition, and supplement the volume with a few extra readings. I am very pleased to learned that basically all the changes made in the 2nd edition are precisely the ones I would recommend....Students tend to be positive about the book. I find they like having all the readings in one place, and I'm sure they will be even happier now that I won't have to supplement with external readings." -- Dr. A. J. Cotnoir, Senior Lecturer in Philosophy, University of St Andrews, UK
"Let me conclude by emphasising that, once amended as suggested, this revised edition will certainly be a significant improvement on the first edition, and it will continue to be an essential and outstanding reference to everybody interested in the nature of truth. Thus, I very much hope to see this new edition in print soon!" -- Professor Filippo Ferrari, Lehrstuhl für Logik und Grundlagenforschung, Institut für Philosophie, Universität Bonn, Germany
"I think that a revision of this volume is both necessary and proper. The 'contemporary' material in the original volume is starting to become dated. I think that the proposed inclusions are generally appropriate....The new pluralism section overs a good solid survey of developments in that sub-section of work on truth." -- Professor Robert Barnard, The University of Mississippi, Department of Philosophy and Religion
