Acknowledgments
This book is a descendant of my dissertation. I started my research into matters of conceptual and nonconceptual content in late 2005 on Sven Walters advice, and I thank him for pointing me in the direction of this intriguing topic. I am greatly indebted to my supervisor Heinz-Dieter Heckmann and my advisors Niko Strobach and Frank Hofmann for their support and their very helpful comments. I am obliged to the faculty of the Department of Philosophy at Saarland University for stimulating discussions of my work, especially to Susanne Mantel, Uwe Meixner, Ulrich Nortmann, and Corina Stroessner.
