N2  - This book is valuable for presenting a comprehensive theory of meaning that traces its origins to the work of Frege and has had a broad influence. The book’s main strength lies in its systematic approach. Unlike most philosophical logicians from Frege to Quine, who have typically addressed the issues in a piecemeal and localized manner, this work offers a more unified perspective. It is characterized by a genial tolerance, with Carnap positioning himself as proposing conventions rather than asserting absolute truths, though he provides ample material for debate
