Book Summary
In a world plagued by conflict, one might expect that the exact sciences of
logic and mathematics would provide a safe harbor. In fact, these disciplines
are rife with internal divisions between different, often incompatible systems.
This original work explores apparently intractable disagreements in logic and
the foundations of mathematics and sets out conflict resolution strategies that
evade these stalemates. The book is a significant contribution to such areas of
philosophy as logic, philosophy of language and argumentation theory. It is also
of interest to mathematicians and computer scientists.
