It argues that a Russellian realist bundle theory is indeed the best explanation of similarities and differences that we observe around us thanks to the ontological economy such a theory provides and its strength and completeness as a theory of the nature of reality. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eTackling the major criticisms levelled against the realist bundle theory - the problem of individuation, the problem of necessity, and the problem of analyticity - this study presents and defends a tenable Russellian bundle theory which can answer the objections. \u003ci\u003eBertrand Russell's Bundle Theory of Particulars\u003c\/i\u003e is a novel and significant contribution to Russell scholarship.\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/i\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Gülberk Koç MacLean\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 147425702X\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781474257022\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Bloomsbury Publishing PLC\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 09\/24\/2015\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 184\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.58lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.21h x 6.14w x 0.39d","brand":"Gülberk Koç MacLean","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":47200715440383,"sku":"9781474257022","price":51.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_08383929-f305-4271-a1e2-39b6203427cb.jpg?v=1756787669","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/bertrand-russells-bundle-theory-of-gzlberk-koz-maclean-9781474257022","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
