This book shows how logical empiricism epitomized analytic philosophy in the middle of the twentieth century. Logical empiricists created a scientifically and technically informed philosophy of science, established mathematical logic as a topic in philosophy, and initiated the project of formal semantics. Mid-twentieth century accounts place logical empiricism at the centre of analytic philosophy.
