The Problem of the Essential Indexical and Other Essays, Expanded Edition Expanded edition
John Perry
The word "I" is called an indexical, which means who it stands for depends on who says it, not just on its meaning. Other indexicals are "you," "here" and "now." Perry discusses how these words work, and why they express important philosophical thoughts.
