What has emerged is an impressive and detailed account of intentionality embracing both mental states and linguistic behaviour. Though the developing theory has been presented in a steady stream of books and articles over the last thirty years, two items stand out as major landmarks: the publication of \u003ci\u003eSpeech Acts\u003c\/i\u003e in 1969 and of \u003ci\u003eIntentionality\u003c\/i\u003e in 1983. Both of these seminal books offer structural theories; that is, they analyze the items within their domains (speech acts and mental states) as having a structure which allows for variation along a number of parameters. \u003cbr\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003ci\u003eJohn Searle and His Critics\u003c\/i\u003e proceeds from an analysis of the importance and influence of these two works to an overall assessment of Searle's impact in the philosophy of language, of mind, of social explanation, and of reference and intentionality. Each of the chapters has been newly commissioned from a leading scholar in the relevant field and each section concludes with a summary and response from Searle himself.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/font\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cfont size=\"3\"\u003eNotes on Contributors. \u003cp\u003eEditors' Introduction.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003ePart I: Meaning and Speech Acts:.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003ePart II: The Mind-Body Problem:.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003ePart III: Perception and the Satisfaction of Intentionality:.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003ePart IV: Reference and Intentionality:.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003ePart V: The Background of Intentionality and Action:.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003ePart VI: Social Explanation:.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003ePart VII: Applications: Ontology and Obligation:.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eSelected Bibliography of the Works of J.
