SUMMARY

Logic is fundamental to thought and language. But which logical principles are correct? The paradoxes play a crucial role in answering that question. The so-called Liar and Heap paradoxes challenge our basic ideas about logic; at the very least, they teach us that the correct logical principles are not as obvious as common sense would have it. The essays in this volume, written by leading figures in the field, discuss novel thoughts about the paradoxes.Beall, J. C. is the author of 'Liars and Heaps New Essays on Paradox', published 2004 under ISBN 9780199264803 and ISBN 0199264805.
