- More about Properties and Propositions: The Metaphysics of Higher-Order Logic
Fregean realism is a theory of properties based on Frege's insight that properties are not objects but the satisfaction conditions of predicates. It solves metaphysical puzzles and provides a version of the identity theory of truth, collapsing the gap between mind and world.

Fregean realism, a theory of properties based on Frege's insight that properties are not objects but rather the satisfaction conditions of predicates, is presented and defended in this book. Robert Trueman contends that this approach is essential for resolving a variety of longstanding metaphysical puzzles, such as Bradley's Regress and the Problem of Universals, as well as for comprehending the relationship between states of affairs, propositions, and the truth conditions of sentences. Trueman suggests that Fregean realism ultimately leads to a version of the identity theory of truth, which holds that true propositions are identical to obtaining states of affairs. In other words, the identity theory collapses the gap between mind and world. This book will be of interest to anyone working in logic, metaphysics, the philosophy of language, or the philosophy of mind.
