Construction of Logical Space

Auteur: Rayo, Agustin (Massachusetts Institute of Technology)
Editeur: Oxford University Press
Our conception of logical space is the set of distinctions we use to navigate the world. Agustin Rayo argues that this is shaped by acceptance or rejection of 'just is'-statements: e.g. 'to be composed of water just is to be composed of H2O'. He offers a novel conception of metaphysical possibility, and a new trivialist philosophy of mathematics.
