| Abstract
|
:
|
"This collection of new essays offers a "state-of-the-art" conspectus of major trends in the philosophy of logic and the philosophy of mathematics. A group of philosophers addresses issues at the center of contemporary debate: semantic and set-theoretic paradoxes, the set/class distinction, foundations of set theory, mathematical intuition, and many others. The volume includes Hilary Putnam's 1995 Alfred Tarski lectures, published here for the first time."--Jacket.
