      This text discusses the philosophical views of Donald Davidson, an influential 20th-century philosopher. Since the 1960s Davidson's views have provoked and inspired and his intellectual dynamism has revolutionized the philosophy of mind, epistemology, philosophy of language and semantics. He is not only known for his rigorous and often controversial thinking but also by his willingness to engage in dialogue and re-evaluate his ideas and paradigms. The present collection is testimony to his spirit of openness and contains essays by academics on the major themes of Davidson's philosophy, complete with individual responses by the philosopher himself. The essays address the main ideas of Davidson's theory of language and epistemology with their implications in ontology and philosophy of mind. The book begins with polemical essays on the central problem of truth, one of the most controversial philosophical issues. The core of the controversy can be formulated in the question: is truth the goal of enquiry?;This query has recently been raised by Richard Rorty to whom Davidson has penned a personal reply. In the second part of the anthology, contributors discuss Davidson's semantic program
