　　If there is a movement or school that epitomizes analytic

philosophy in the middle of the twentieth century, it is logical

empiricism. Logical empiricists created a scientifically and

technically informed philosophy of science, established

mathematical logic as a topic in and tool for philosophy, and

initiated the project of formal semantics. Accounts of analytic

philosophy written in the middle of the twentieth century gave

logical empiricism a central place in the project. The second wave

of interpretative accounts was constructed to show how philosophy

should progress, or had progressed, beyond logical empiricism. The

essays survey the formative stages of logical empiricism in central

Europe and its acculturation in North America, discussing its main

topics, and achievements and failures, in different areas of

philosophy of science, and assessing its influence on philosophy,

past, present, and future.
