Arbitrary Reference in Logic and Mathematics
เกี่ยวกับ eBook เล่มนี้
In the second part of the book, the authors consider grounding megethology on plural arbitrary reference and argue that the arguments for the ontological innocence of mereology are not conclusive and that – for a certain use of mereology – a thesis of innocence, similar to that of plural arbitrary reference, is defensible. The work proposes a virtual theory of mereology in which the role of individuals is played by plural choices of atoms.
This considered work will appeal to scholars from branches of analytic philosophy, logic and the philosophy of mathematics in particular.
