{"product_id":"a-logical-foundation-for-potentialist-sharon-berry-9781108834315","title":"A Logical Foundation for Potentialist Set Theory","description":"In many ways set theory lies at the heart of modern mathematics, and it does powerful work both philosophical and mathematical - as a foundation for the subject. However, certain philosophical problems raise serious doubts about our acceptance of the axioms of set theory. In a detailed and original reassessment of these axioms, Sharon Berry uses a potentialist (as opposed to actualist) approach to develop a unified determinate conception of set-theoretic truth that vindicates many of our intuitive expectations regarding set theory. Berry further defends her approach against a number of possible objections, and she shows how a notion of logical possibility that is useful in formulating Potentialist set theory connects in important ways with philosophy of language, metametaphysics and philosophy of science. Her book will appeal to readers with interests in the philosophy of set theory, modal logic, and the role of mathematics in the sciences.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Sharon Berry\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1108834310\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781108834315\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Cambridge University Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 02\/17\/2022\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 250\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.32lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.61h x 6.69w x 0.63d","brand":"Sharon Berry","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":43990988357887,"sku":"9781108834315","price":99.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_e9a87b69-0cd9-4734-b3aa-3004c65e9de8.jpg?v=1683307802","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/a-logical-foundation-for-potentialist-sharon-berry-9781108834315","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
