Synopsis
Timmons defends a metaethical view that exploits certain contextualist themes in philosophy of language and epistemology. He advances what he calls assertoric non-descriptivism, a view that employs semantic contextualism in giving an account of moral discourse. This view, which like traditional non-descriptivist views stresses the practical, action-guiding function of moral thought and discourse, also allows that moral sentences, as typically used, make genuine assertions. Timmons then defends a contextualist moral epistemology thus completing his overall program of contextualism in ethics.

Review
Throughout, Timmons' arguments are well informed, fair-minded and nearly always persuasive. I think this will be one of the most admired books in contemporary meta-ethics. (Brad Hooker, Phil Quart. Vol.51, No.202, Jan 2001.)
This book deserves to be studied by everyone interested in the semantics and epistemology of ethics. (Brad Hooker, Phil Quart. Vol.51, No.202, Jan 2001.)
