Rezension zu „Thought and Reality “
The British elder sage of philosophy of language... provide[s] a clear exposition of his consistent rejection of bivalent logic (the view that something must be true or false, and nothing in between) in favour of what is called "intuitionist" logic. The knotty arguments about meaning and knowledge are illuminated with references to astrophysics and the odd beguiling image. Steven Poole, The Guardian ...a good introduction to the thought of one of philosophy's most searching minds. Paul Boghossian, TLS
