This is one of those collections of classics that easily gets lost among the multitude of books on the topic, but it is still one of the best I've come across. Most of the classics are here, Davidson's 'Truth and Meaning', Lewis' 'General Semantics', Kamp's original presentation of DRT, Groenendijk & Stokhof's 'Dynamic Predicate Logic', Barwise & Perry's 'Situations and Attitudes', Barwise & Cooper's 'Generalized Quantifiers and Natural Language' and the hard to come by (except in the ridiculously expensive 'Themes from Kaplan') 'Demonstratives' by Kaplan, to mention a few. One might question the rationale behind some of the selections, but as a whole this is probably the most comprehensive collection available. With, in addition, a long and illuminating introduction by the editors, this is a must for all students of semantics and philosophy of language, and for researchers that would like to have all of these often cited classics in one place.
